Triadas: Truthful and empowering, filled with the pain of history, but most of all the love and pride of Native heritage.

Light carrier: Joy Harmony’s American Sunrise amazed me through evoking powerful feelings of loss, grief, resignation, anger, acceptance of life and self-determination, and finally renewal. The masterful use of language pushes and pulls the reader/listener into a dream state of vision and reality mixed together and called a history of our life.
I experienced tears too often. I was surprised by laughter at times. I felt loss and pain. I appreciate renewal of my spirit. I now better understand self-determination.
This book led me to a poet, author, and performer I am sincerely enjoying through her published works. My life is enriched.
