Publisher Description:
"I see a time of Seven Generations when all the colors of mankind will gather under the Sacred Tree of Life and the whole earth will become One Circle again. In that day there will be those among the Lakota who will carry knowledge and understanding of unity among all living things, and the young white ones will come to those of my people and ask for this wisdom." -Crazy Horse - - - On Native American Reservations, there are programs that are part of the "safety net" which are federally funded. They receive altogether tens of millions of dollars to bolster the lives of families and children, yet the people and children continue to fall through the cracks and fissures. One problem is that program staff and directors are claiming ownership of the sad issue of native suicides. There are launches of grassroots-based suicide prevention networks to counterbalance this issue. There is a crossroad of awareness between indigenous people and these other launches. We are officially and permanently at these crossroads together. Somehow we can make our ideas work alongside the positive works of all caring souls. - This illustrated and color edition includes the author's chapbooks: Indians of Old Lifestyles, This is Now That was Then, They Got the Bee but Not the Hive, Stay Standing, The Compassionate Book, Oceti Sakowin, The Moon Last Night, and Seven Rising.
