Editors' note: Pam Daniels is a writer and activist with 23 years experience in broadcast news and media including the staff of a former Governor.
The movie Two Spirits will premier on PBS this coming June.
Two Spirits as described on the Cinema Guild website is the story of Fred Martinez who "was nádleehí, a male-bodied person with a feminine essence, a special gift according to his ancient Navajo culture. He was one of the youngest hate crime victims in modern history when he was brutally murdered at sixteen by a young man who bragged to friends that he had "bug-smashed a ->-bleeped-<-." Two Spirits explores the life and death of a boy who was also a girl and the essentially spiritual nature of gender and sexuality.
