Jozi Tall Chief is making history as the first admitted intersex/transgender to run for a seat in the Osage Nation government.

"I am the first intersex/transgender candidate in our tribe and I am making history by not only drawing attention to our tribe and issues," said Tall Chief, "But we are enlightening our people to the old tradition, which we call today 'Two-Spirit.'"
