Description: |
Nicholas Black Elk's story and teachings, recorded by John G Neihardt have played a critical role in shaping the way in which Native Americans and others view the past, present, and future of Native America. Here, the descendants of Black Elk tell about their lives and their people and how the legacy of Black Elk affects them. |
Synopsis: |
The story and teachings of Nicholas Black Elk (1863-1950), first recorded by John G. Neihardt in Black Elk Speaks, have played a critical role in shaping the way in which Native Americans and others view the past, present, and future of Native America. These conversations with the descendents of Black Elk offer an intimate look at life on the Pine Ridge Reservation and fresh perspectives on the religious, economic, and political opportunities and challenges facing the Lakota people today. In addition to revealing more about Black Elk the healer, the family also provides glimpses of Black Elk as a family man, teacher, and influential ancestor. |
