Listening to the Birds: A Nez Perce Woman's Journey of Self-Discovery and Healing -

An enrolled tribal member of the Nez Perce tribe, Roberta Tawlikitsanmay' Paul, Ph.D., was born and raised on the reservation. She now gives presentations for survivors of intergenerational trauma, where she teaches that sharing stories is a Native way to heal wounds--but, she says, "If you don't know the story, you can't heal." Unearthing that past became her own first step toward healing wounds of racism, relocation, and assimilation. In addition, she teaches workshops on healing historical trauma using a ten-step model she developed--one she describes in Listening to the Birds.
