Zitkala-Sa, No Time For Tears - Native American ZitkalaSa, (1876 - 1938) Zitkala-Sa, Gertrude Simmons Bonnin, was a Native American author imbued with spirit, courage and determination which very much showed in her writing. http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art21462.asp
Extractions: Zitkala-Sa, Gertrude Simmons Bonnin, was a Native American author imbued with spirit, courage and determination which very much showed in her writing. She was a free spirit who knew at an early age what she wanted, where she wanted to go and how to go about getting there. In her book, "American Indian Stories", written in 1900, her first chapter gives a strong impression of a child who knew herself and aimed to be free, running like the wind. In this chapter, she wrote about memories of her Mother and the tears she did not understand. She had a great talent and with words painted vivid images of her childhood. Here, morning, noon, and evening, my mother came to draw water from the muddy stream for our household use. Always, when my mother started for the river, I stopped my play to run along with her. She was only of medium height. Often she was sad and silent, at which times her full arched lips were compressed into hard and bitter lines, and shadows fell under her black eyes. Then I clung to her hand and begged to know what made the tears fall.

Extractions: By Roseanne Hoefel A vital link between the oral cultures of tribal America and the literate culture of contemporary American Indians, Gertrude Bonnin was the third child of Ellen Tate 'I yohiwin Simmons, a full-blood Yankton Sioux. Born in 1876 on a Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota and known as Zitkala-Sa, which means Red Bird, she was raised in a tipi on the Missouri River until she was 12 when she went to a Quaker missionary school for IndiansWhite's Manual Institutein Wabash, Indiana. Though her mother was reluctant to let her go to the boarding school she herself had attended when young, she wanted to ensure her daughter's ability to fend for herself later in life among an increasing number of palefaces. As with many uprooted children, Zitkala-Sa returned after three years to a heightened tension with her mother and ambivalence regarding her heritage. The assimilationist schooling left her "neither a wild Indian, nor a tame one," as she later described herself in "The School Days of an Indian Girl" (1900). Four years later, Zitkala-Sa re-entered school, graduated on to Earlham College to become a teacher, remaining socially reclusive even after congratulatory gestures by schoolmates when she won oratory contests. As a student at the Boston Conservatory she went to Paris in 1900 with Carlisle Indian Industrial School (CIIS) as violin soloist for the Paris Exposition. Increasingly, she devoted herself to her people's cause and to overcoming her own cultural alienation through her fiction, as expressed in her 1901 collection
