Autorenporträt

Eagle Woman, also known as Diamond Johnny, is a dedicated advocate for human rights and Indigenous Rights and a prominent public speaker. She has actively addressed issues of torture for Amnesty International and has petitioned numerous world governments regarding human rights abuses. Diamond has authored several policy briefs submitted to the United States Congress, highlighting the unjust treatment of asylum seekers at U.S. borders, with a particular focus on children. As an Indigenous woman and a third-generation land and water protector, Diamond profoundly believes water is medicine. Her scholarly pursuits involve researching and writing on Indigenous topics, especially those critical issues that obstruct the implementation of the U.N. Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. Her work, which aims to dismantle colonial conditioning and ongoing oppression, has a significant and meaningful impact. Diamond argues that the rights of Indigenous peoples are persistently undermined because they are placed at the bottom of the legal hierarchy. Her book, "Confronting the Silence and Creating a Shared Memory after a Violent Past: A Case Study of Guatemala", is pivotal to her academic and activist work. Diamond posits that in the aftermath of war and armed conflict, individuals and communities grapple with memories of violence and atrocity. She emphasizes that reconciliation is essential for restoring stability in post-conflict societies, requiring a collective effort to repair the social, political, and cultural fractures that conflict leaves behind. Diamond asserts, "In the tapestry of a nation's history, reconciliation is the needle that stitches together the frayed threads of conflict, weaving a fabric of unity and resilience for a harmonious future." In her personal life, Diamond finds joy in storytelling, participating in ceremonies, smudging, sharing circles, and drumming with her sister Lucretia, brother Dave, and nephew Shaheel. For Diamond, family is not just the cornerstone of her existence, but a source of unity, warmth, and unwavering support. It's not merely a chapter in the book of life but the ink that colors every page, the warmth that fills every word, and the unwavering support that transforms each moment into a cherished masterpiece.
