Little’s comments from the Reader with a Cause group.

@Kathy <3 Wopila (thank you in Lakota)

Thank you!

Plus, I'd like to understand more why I did what I did and why I went back so many times. So, I would be very interested in having a group read my true story, a group that has insight into this type of thing, as this was my first experience.The Dark Horse Speaks

The Dark Horse Speaks

The Dark Horse Speaks by Little White Bird (hello! :) is a contemporary look at domestic violence on the Native American Indian reservation in Pine Ridge, South Dakota. While a memoir, the book is an easy, conversational read. Domestic violence acts themselves are not the dominating storyline, however the threat of it is an underlying tone that haunts the pages.

Hello, this is actually my first comment in any Goodreads forum, so I hope I do it right. I know this conversation has expired, but the topic and question at hand is timeless. As a survivor myself (who, yes, did hang on too long and go back numerous times), sometimes because we convince ourselves the abuser has some magic, allure, mystique that we want to be near. We rationalize why we need to be near this person and keep finding new reasons. Just wanted to add my comment, I apologize if inappropriate or not the way it works in Goodreads discussions or groups. Let me know what I could do differently in the future, please. I'd like to be member in good standing. Wopila! Little White Bird, heart in Wounded Knee SD
