My Halloween costume 🎃 last night. Someone told me I looked like Nicole Kidman on “Practical Magic.” Totally unintentional 😆 I just wanted to dress up as a witch 👻 #aculturame #practicalmagic #witches #gillianowens #halloweenhats #witcheshats

This is a picture of an altar for the Día de Los Muertos or Day of the Dead in San Luis Potosí at the Palacio Municipal in Historic Downtown 🌼 There’s a lot of misunderstanding about this Mexican holiday which has its roots from the Aztecs find out about its history at aculturame.com under “How We Celebrate Dia de los Muertos in San Luis Potosí” 🌼🌼🌼#aculturame #diadelosmuertos #diadelosmuertosaltar #palaciomunicipalslp #diadelosmuertosaltars #lapotosinawrites #wordpressblog #rememberingday #dayofthedead #yosoydesanluispotosi #visitslp #mexicanaltars
Standing at the Battle of the Little Bighorn Memorial. The tour to this National Monument is an unforgettable experience. #aculturame #thebattleofthelittlebighorn #lapotosinawrites #nativeamericaneducation #americanindianhistory #pryormountains #montanaprairie
“Up in that hill the air filled with gust and dust smoke, General Custer will make his way with five companies of men, twenty men per company that totals over 210 men plus a number of civilians...” one of the best storytelling I’ve heard is from Rose, a member of the Crow Nation in Pryor, Montana. For the first time, I heard from a Native American perspective, the infamous Battle of the Little Bighorn which took place on June 25, 1876. These events would not be forgotten by the Native American tribes. I invite you to read my recount of this trip on my post “The Battle of the Little Bighorn: A Native American Perspective” (link on bio) this is one of my most memorable trips in the U.S. and also the one that inspired me to start writing ✍🏼 #aculturame #battleofthelittlebighorn #thebattleofthelittlebighorn #storytelling #nativeamericanstorytelling #nativeamericaneducation #knowyourhistory #pryormontana #visitmontana #littlebighornbattlefield #littlebighornbattlefieldnationalmonument #crazyhorsequote #americanhistory #placeofreflection #nationalparkservice #generalcuster #americanindianhistory #nativeamericanmonument
