The cover of the report shows artwork called Sister Spirits by Kylie Wanatee, age 19, Rosebud Sioux Tribe. The artist's statement reads "This is a 24 x 36 gouache painting of the Three Sisters: the Corn, the Bean, and the Squash. Indigenous Peoples throughout North America cultivate varieties of this trio because of their ability to thrive once planted together; this is known as companion planting. The top sister is the corn stalk, the bottom right sister is the squash, as her dress becomes the shade that keeps the soil moist, and the bottom left sister is the bean that grows hanging onto the corn stalk.”
