Bean Woman (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218359027)

For one Occaneechi woman, the journey of love mirrored the broader story of her people's survival. Her path to love was not a linear one but a reflection of patience, self-discovery, and cultural grounding. Through ceremonies, storytelling, and shared meals, she found a partner who honored her roots and supported her role as a caretaker of her people's heritage. Their love blossomed within the embrace of community, anchored in the values of reciprocity, kinship, and ancestral wisdom, symbolizing the enduring power of love to heal, sustain, and carry the tradition forward.
