Biography
Edwards was born and raised in Montana.[2] She studied at the University of Denver[2] obtaining a BA degree in psychology and mathematics.[1] She earned an MA in counseling psychology from the University of Denver.[1]
She has self-identified as being descended from six Native American tribes, including Cherokee, Crow, Cree, Piegan Blackfeet, and some "Sioux and Nez Perce ancestry," as well as European blood from Scotland, Ireland, and Denmark.[1][3] She is not enrolled in any of these tribes, however, and her statements and misrepresentations of Native American spirituality have been contested and protested by several Native American groups, including the American Indian Movement.[4]
In 1984, the American Indian Movement included Edwards among those it said were responsible for "a great attack or theft" of Native American ceremonies,[4] and in a 2001 article in the Journal of Religious & Theological Information, Cynthia Snavely connected Edwards to the "misappropriation of Native American spirituality [that] takes place within the New Age spirituality movement".[5] The Center for the SPIRIT (Support and Protection of Indian Religions and Indigenous Traditions) accused her of misrepresenting her heritage and falsely claiming to be a medicine woman.[6]
Bianca Casady of the musical group CocoRosie has referred to Brooke Medicine Eagle as her mother's partner, stating "As a small child I was carried in a papoose around sacred Anasazi grounds by my mother and her partner, Brook[e] Medicine Eagle."[7]
