  21. Copper Women completes the circle of the sacred women.  The first nations of Vancouver Island retell the story of First mother, who was made of the earth on which we stand, in whose veins ran blood as salty as the sea, whose hair is as the grass, whose public hair is as the moss, whose bones and teeth are as the shells and whose children became scattered, and spread out to cover the earth.  We learn that we are all cousins, because we are all grandchildren of First Mother.
