Welcome.  Join me on this journey in returning to the past, to the long-forgotten memories & ancestors, and in honoring them through remembrance & reverence, in order to move forward on the Red Road.  Many things will culminate here together in the seasons to come. We will together touch many wounds, and begin healing . I will present many stories that are now their time to be told, and discuss topics (Colonialism, Amnesia, Loss of Spiritual-Self, Myth & Meaning...) that now must be addressed from the indigenous standpoint, connected by Wisdom. Most importantly, I will touch where we stand today, and what we must do now in times of great peril. We will be returning to the truth, resurrecting the wisdom of the elders, walking the red road. We can not come/be together [whole] if we can not remember [home].  Many blessings.
