My name is Quentin H Young, author of Mystic Visions: Black Elk's Great Vision Clarified. I met Chris Dennison when I was fifteen, and he was eleven. Chris is Lakota (Sioux) from his mother's side of the family and is related through my mother's Lakota side of the family which makes Chris my third cousin.When I began writing Finding Lara: From the Other Side, it challenged me as an author, it required me to step out of the safe place of spiritual writing and into the dark corners of rape, child abuse, and prejudice thinking: not about racial injustice but about how society treats people who are physically different.In early 2022, I had the rare privilege of recording an interview with Chris about his early struggles as a winkte. The word wiŋkte (wink-tay) is a Lakota word, for hermaphrodite. The human hermaphrodite is not a true hermaphrodite, being both male and female. The medical field refers to this condition as Intersex. Traditional Lakota see the wiŋkte as being sacred whereas, non-traditional people see them as either gay or lesbian.The first three chapters in this book took place in Chris's early years, they contain descriptive content with respect to sexual abuse, and rape. What is important to understand is, throughout each chapter Chris gained immense understanding with respect to his physical body. This would help him find peace of mind and move beyond the abuse, bringing him closer to discovering who Lara is, and where she comes fromThese writings are both controversial and educational. This book is not intended for young children. With parental guidance and approval, transgender people 15+ could find this book helpful before they begin taking hormones and undergoing gender reassignment surgeries.
