Episode description
Sherenté Mishitahin Harris is a two-spirit gender-queer pow-wow dancer from the Narragansett tribe. One of his greatest loves is performing in traditional women’s dance competitions across New England. But many in the community still hold onto traditional gender roles – and some judges don’t let Sherenté dance in the women’s category. A documentary called “Being Thunder” tells his story.
