Beatrice Long Visitor Holy Dance
Beatrice Long Visitor Holy Dance is a Native American spiritual elder who is a member of the Oglala Lakota Tribe and comes from the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. Beatrice has gained international recognition through her work with the Council of the International Council of 13 Indigenous Grandmothers - a group of women elders, medicine women and wisdom keepers founded in 2004.〔Schaefer (2006) p.2〕
== Biography ==
Beatrice was sent to a Roman Catholic boarding school at age 7. She waited for her younger sister Rita to wed and the two enjoyed a double wedding.〔Schaefer (2006) p.66〕
She is a "Native American Church elder, sundancer, and health worker for people with diabetes," and works on a Youth Ambassador program with her sister to connect young people with spirituality and the Sun Dance.
Among Beatrice's themes in her talks is forgiveness, something she has experience with. As a child, she watched as Christian missionaries stamped out the Lakota faith, and the federal government rounded up Lakotas and placed them on reservations.
She also endured the murders of two of her children, one in 1994 and another in 2007. "I pray for the people who did that to them," Beatrice told me. "I pray that they have a clean soul and will someday be in the Creator's arms."
She has driven a truck on the reservation for decades delivering medicines.〔 In 2012 she hosted a workshop for girls on "how to properly cut buffalo meat and dry it."
