CHICAGO (WGN) — Some believe destiny is whispered through the wind. Among the tall grass of Oklahoma’s Osage Tribal Reservation, many stories slip between its reeds.
Some stories are about wealth, greed and murder, but one is of a mother and daughter who would make certain the world wouldn’t forget the elders who lived it.
Elise Paschen is an enrolled member of the Osage Nation. She is the author of six poetry collections, gracefully penning the words her ancestors once spoke.
