Just got this email from a friend in Pine Ridge the people are trying to get the word in South Dakota.
Subject: FW: Whirling Rainbow WORD NEEDS TO BE PUT OUT
sent to me.....asked to be shared........
This is CRAZY - I looked at the website and it is really, REAL. She's planning on being in South Dakota @ Bear Butte to do a healing ceremony!
ALL MY NATIVE FRIENDS AND FAMILY,
I JUST WANTED TO BRING THIS FRAUD TO YOUR ATTENTION SO THAT YOU WOULD BE AWARE OF HER AND HER SO CALLED "PRAYERFORMANCES" IF YOU WERE NOT ALREADY AWARE. HER NAME IS RACHEL HOLWARTH BUT SHE IS USING THE "NATIVE NAME" OF WHITE EAGLE WOMAN. SHE IS TRAVELING THE UNITED STATES CHARGING FOR SO CALLED NATIVE TEACHINGS AND CEREMONIES USING A 7 FOOT DRUM SHE HAS NAMED THE GRANDMOTHER DRUM. SHE IS GOING TO OKLAHOMA, TEXAS, ALASKA, OHIO, MICHIGAN, WASHINGTON D.C., AND I BELIEVE TO SOUTH DAKOTA.
PEOPLE HAVE MANAGED TO GET HER PERFORMANCES CANCELLED IN OHIO AND MICHIGAN AND NOW IT FALLS TO OTHERS AS WELL AS OURSELVES TO GET HER CANCELLED NATIONWIDE.
IT IS A DISGRACE HOW SHE HAS MANAGED TO TRICK PEOPLE INTO BELIEVING WHAT SHE IS DOING IS TRADITIONAL NATIVE CEREMONIES WHEN IT IS OBVIOUS SHE IS ONLY A PERFORMER, ACTOR, FRAUD, AND SCAM ARTIST.
BELOW IS WHERE TO FIND MORE INFORMATION ON HER AND HER SCHEDULE AS WELL AS HER FEES, CEREMONIES, AND THOSE WHO ARE PROTESTING HER GROSS AND BLATANT DISRESPECT FOR OUR WAY OF LIFE.
If you haven't looked at her website yet, you won't believe it--she is the worst kind of "new ager".
www.whirlingrainbow.com . It's incredible that she is an "educational 501c3 organization". AIIA managed to get her events cancelled in Ohio and Michigan.
Someone started an anti-Whirling Rainbow myspace page. Check this out and if you like, share it with others so this woman is stopped from disrespecting Native American culture, traditions and ceremonies.
