“Behold, my brothers and sisters, the spring has come.
Dear Relatives,
May our Awakening begin!
“Behold, my brothers and sisters, the spring has come.
The earth has received the embraces of the sun and we shall soon see the
results of that love!
Every seed is awakened and so has all animal life.
It is through this mysterious power that we too have our being and we
therefore yield to our neighbors, even our animal neighbors, the same right
as ourselves to inhabit this land.
My love of our native soil is wholly mystical.”
— Chief Sitting Bull (Tatanka Iyotaka), Hunkpapa Sioux (1831-1890),
Lakota Medicine Man and Chief was considered the last Sioux to surrender to
the U.S. Government.
“Let us put our minds together to see what kind of life we can make for our children.”

“To restore the land one must live and work in a place.
To work in a place is to work with others.
People who work together in a place become a community,
and a community, in time, grows a culture.
To work on behalf of the wild is to restore culture.”
