Book Description
Now is the time for us to come to terms with the proposition on which this little book rests. The foundation for climate change, pandemics, violent inequality, and overwhelming discontent is our uninvestigated, dominant worldview. A solution to these challenges rests with our original, Nature-based worldview. To survive, and collectively thrive, after COVID-19, we must reimagine our place in the world by re-embracing what Four Arrows calls "Indigenous worldview." Sitting Bull modeled such an approach to leadership based on Indigenous worldview. Four Arrows has selected seventeen worldview precepts especially vital for our times, one for each short chapter. You do not have to read the chapters in order. Let your intuition guide your reading. You can even use divination to choose. Just close your eyes and open the book to whatever page emerges.

Sitting Bull
Author: Ernie LaPointe
Publisher: Gibbs Smith
ISBN: 1423612663
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 145
Book Description
An intimate portrait of the Lakota chief by his great-grandson. Ernie LaPointe, born on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, is a great-grandson of the famous Hunkpapa Lakota chief Sitting Bull, and in this book, the first by one of Sitting Bull’s lineal descendants, he presents the family tales and memories told to him about his great-grandfather. LaPointe not only recounts the rich oral history of his family—the stories of Sitting Bull’s childhood, his reputation as a fierce warrior, his growth into a sage and devoted leader of his people, and the betrayal that led to his murder—but also explains what it means to be Lakota in the time of Sitting Bull and now. In many ways, the oral history differs from what has become the standard and widely accepted biography of Sitting Bull. LaPointe explains the discrepancies, how they occurred, and why he wants to tell his story of Tatanka Iyotake. This is a powerful story of Native American history, told by a Native American, for all people to better understand a culture, a leader, and a man.
