Let's talk about Natives on this Trans Day of Visibility, like Kauxuma Nupika (c.1780-1837), an Indigenous AFAB Kutenai who divorced his Canadian husband and then declared himself male. As a trans Native, Nupika became both a warrior and prophet, predicting the arrivals of Europeans to Kutenai lands amnd trying to forge peace between nations like the Salish and the Blackfeet
