Biography Entry: Susan Chippewa

my start with work had to be when I got hired for the call center in UICORE as I was new to the prison i also had been new to the changes that i had to face like being at a certain place at a certain hour. one of the many bosses had got in my face about how i was wrong and I should know better. this had went on for 3 minutes an I’m sure it was because i just said ok an kept looking at her for her to finish. she struck a nerve when she said do you speak English an i had snapped i called her out her name an wanted to fight her i told her come off the podium so i could knock her fat ass around. believe it or not i kept my job for 3 months an had gotten fired because i wouldn’t let the CEO of the magazine company i was working under curse me out. an not even 20 days later got fired from the email services the back had to offer. i don’t think i could ever live some of this down all i can do is laugh an remind myself to listen an speak in a way i would want to be treated regardless of the circumstances i am in.

3 years in prison an i had wanted a change i signed up for LCP that’s the life connection program, i found an outlet an a spark of interest to help others want something in life. a meaning a purpose or just some kind of love for the people. i am an Aquarius i love others but not others in my business if they aren’t helping themselves out. i have been good at hair an make up i get tips for my clients with new technique an styles but i stay true to myself all the way. i have completed the program an got started on my application to the Adams State University to get my associates in social work. in all the scheme of things i want to start my own shop for hair an makeup but i also want to start up a non profit organization that will help people in my community on the reservation. i want to reconcile the hurt the pain in every moment after prison. its my goal when i get home i come from the Wind River Reservation an i believe others think of it as the murder capital sense the feds started looking into all the missing an murderer indigenous people over the past few years.

I’m still in the journey of saving money an understanding the broken people i surround myself with. I’ve been through so much in Dublin , Carswell, an Aliceville i just don’t know where to go next i haven’t even seen my children in 5 years i keep pushing forward an developing new ways to be heard and to get out so i can be the greatness i know i am. my release should be in 2044 but with some kind of outlet i see it happening in the next few years. should it just be hopes an dreams or will something come from the hard work an effort of my time an patience with ever obstacle i overcome??? i never did a biography this would be my first an hope to add to it every week with something new.
