We Never Take before We Give.
Taliman, Valerie
Winds of Change, v16 n4 p81-83 Aut 2001
A Mohawk herbalist combines scientific and traditional indigenous knowledge to treat her patients. At her retreat she grows medicinal herbs and treats Native women who suffered physical and sexual abuse in Canada's residential schools. Women are the lifegivers and caregivers in Canada's Six Nations Confederacy; once they know how to heal themselves, they can help their communities heal. (TD)
