"Littlebird is more familiar with his maternal side of the family. His grandparents lived on the Taos Pueblo, and eventually became so disgusted with discrimination against Native Americans, they packed up their wagon and moved to Denver.

“The hatred was still really high,” Littlebird said. “You didn’t tell anyone you were Native American, or they’d try to send you back to the reservation.”

His mother – now 93 and living in Denver – tried to keep Littlebird from returning to his Native American origins, remembering how her mother would tell her the white people thought they were dirty and uncouth.

But Littlebird would have nothing of it, and today is still trying to get reinstated into his tribe in New Mexico. “If I own it, and it’s my ancestry, I want to know it,” he said.

Littlebird’s full name is Leon Charles Jeantette des Moineaux, the last of which means chickadee, or little bird."

"All the way back in the mid 80’s I wandered into a bookstore late one afternoon (remember bookstores?); and I was just scanning the shelves to see if something would grab my attention.

I was the only person in the store except the interesting—dare I say sort of strange—older man behind the register. Our eyes met briefly, and neither of us said a word."

I ran a reverse image search, image of the supposed mystic bookseller actually came from AI prompt
"Portrait of authentic old man with beard and good eyes".

Background on Bersabeh (Baghaee) Ray:

Married James Arthur Ray 2019

She is a painter although I don't see an active web presence for her art

In a video she mentions that she lived in Belgium at one time

I believe this is the correct obituary. The names match what is found on Ariel Jillian Smith's Facebook.

It is possible that the proper spelling of the Bahai faith isn't working.

Testing here also on Baha'i

No, this is not the issue
