Thank you for the welcome Brother, I'm so grateful to be here. I find what you have said makes my heart beat Ike thunder, as my maternal Grandmother now my Ancestor named me after her little crow daughter of Mother Crow. Looking forward to learning more. One love!!
Estamos muy pendientes y atentos a esta informacion pues si el cacique general del area y los Nokos de dos comunidades Waunan y Embera estan atentos a la respuesta. gracias.
I'd like to know our Taino birth ritual. I am currently expecting and would like to marry my African roots and Taino roots for my child's birth. I plan on doing a naming ceremony. Any help please!
I am looking forward to getting to know you mi Hermano and to learn about our heritage so I can pass it on to my children who are already proud of their Cuban heritage and very excited to learn about their Taino heritage. Thank you for the warm welcome. I committed this summer to do the Sundance again and am looking forward to it again and am looking forward to learning all the customs, ceremonies, songs, and history of our people. Thank you again, Reinaldo "Standing Eagle" my Chippewa Spirit name Lazo and one Day I hope to receive my Taino name (what an emotional day that would be if I was ever seen to be worthy to have one)

Friend, that project is somewhere in an old computer, but I will look around for it. However, I would be happy to email you a copy of a paper discussing assimilation and acculturation.
Also, I have been chosen as Vice-President of the newly formed Global Indigenous Group at Florida International University. We are planning to have a big celebration on September 7. We are looking for performers, storytellers, vendors, crafts, etc. If you know of anyone, send them my way. I will announce it to the community when we have a few more details figured out!
My brother! I was just sending you a message.. I actually did a semester-long research project on the lack of awareness and education among Cubans regarding their indigenous past. This is what I hope to continue researching as a graduate student. I am happy to have found this community.
Beike, Thank you so much for your answer & your offer to translate was amazing! Is there a book in English that you might recommend?...or should I just continue with the information provided here in the circle? Thanks for your input,. I truely appreciate it. Taino Ti KOKUYO

Sorry it took so long my friend. But we study a lot and rummage through archives on a daily basis.

Taino Ti, my brother,
I'd like to know our Taino birth ritual. I am currently expecting and would like to marry my African roots and Taino roots for my child's birth. I plan on doing a naming ceremony. Any help please!
I would LOVE to make Taino art work but truth be told I don"t know enough and wouldn't want to misrepresent its cultural authenticity.
I am looking forward to getting to know you mi Hermano and to learn about our heritage so I can pass it on to my children who are already proud of their Cuban heritage and very excited to learn about their Taino heritage. Thank you for the warm welcome.

Bo Matun, Elder Brother!
The profile photo is one that I think I will use for other group profiles as well. How is your computer situation working out?
