In this special panel, Joe Moore of Psychedelics Today is joined by Sandor Iron Rope, Lakota spiritual leader and peyote practitioner, and Zach Leary, writer and advocate for psychedelic culture. Together, they explore the critical importance of respecting the cultural, spiritual, and ecological roots of plant medicines. Sandor shares powerful reflections on the Lakota worldview, the trauma of colonization, and the deep spiritual kinship indigenous peoples hold with medicinal plants. Zach reflects on the American counterculture's relationship with psychedelics, highlighting the need to preserve mysticism and community over commercialization. The panel dives into challenges around synthetic versus natural medicines, the risks of spiritual harm when practices are rushed or disconnected from tradition, and the urgent need for indigenous voices at the table as psychedelic policy evolves. Throughout, a theme emerges: slow down, honor kinship, and build right relationship with nature, culture, and spirit. This conversation offers a rare and necessary bridge between indigenous wisdom and the psychedelic resurgence, calling for respect, collaboration, and a return to deep roots to guide future generations.

This is right near the one year anniversary of The Great Escape. We are only at Chapter Six so it's going to be one long and wild ride.Back in January of this year Phantom Phil read the latest book from one of his favourite researchers Dean Henderson...it can be purchased here:https://www.amazon.ca/Royal-Bloodline-Wetiko-Great-Remembering/dp/This ended up being a philosophical game-charger in a number of different ways. One of them was the introduction of the concept from the Lakota tribe known as Walking The Good Red Road. A more in depth definition comes from this site.http://spirithorsenation.orgThis path could change the state of humanity's consciousness if taken to and applied properly. So find out about it's benefits and how dark forces (likely not of this Earth) got us all off the path in the first place.Connect with Unexplained Inc. here:www.unexplainedinc.com

Jos Kester begeleidt al meer dan 30 jaar mensen om dichter bij zichzelf te komen, te leven vanuit hun hart en zich opnieuw te verbinden met de wereld om zich heen. En alhoewel hij zichzelf niet zo snel een sjamaan zal noemen, werkt hij wel vanuit de visie en methodes van het sjamanisme. Zweethutten, initiatierituelen, verkenningen van je voorouder-lijnen en vele andere rituelen en ceremonies uit andere culturen verbindt Jos in zijn werk met ons hier en nu. Een aantal jaar geleden schreef Jos het heldere, persoonlijke en confronterende boek ‘Mannen zijn geen vrouwen. Een boek geschreven voor mannen - waarin je als lezer wordt uitgedaagd te kijken naar jezelf. Wat is je plek in de wereld? Wat heb je te doen? En hoe verhoud je je tot vrouwen? Het mooie van het boek is, is dat het ook voor een deel de geschiedenis van Noord Amerika beschrijft en hoe die geschiedenis ons - vaak eenzijdige - beeld van mannelijkheid heeft bepaald. Het boek is zo scherp dat ik enerzijds heel nieuwsgierig was naar Jos en anderzijds ook een beetje bang voor hem was. Het heeft even geduurd voordat ik - nu anderhalf jaar geleden - de introductietraining sjamanisme bij hem durfde te volgen. Maar die angst was nergens voor nodig geweest - vanaf het eerste moment voelde ik me welkom, uitgenodigd, maar ook uitgenodigd het diepe in te springen. En dat werd mij een prachtige kennismaking met trancereizen, voorouder-werk en het opnieuw vinden van mijn eigen stem. Voor Jos staat sjamanisme gelijk aan het volgen van de weg van je hart. Dat is niet per se de makkelijkste weg. Jos zegt daar zelf over: ‘Ik doe niet aan het plakken van pleisters. Ik maak open wat in jezelf dicht zit en waar je vaak uit jezelf niet aan durft te komen. Daar heb je – zoals ik uit eigen ervaring weet – hulp bij nodig. Wie een stap verder wil zetten zal uit de oude kaders moet stappen.'   Jos heeft een grote liefde voor de Noord-Amerikaanse indianen, veel van wat hij heeft geleerd heeft en nu doorgeeft komt uit de traditie van de Lakota - waar Jos ook zelf is geweest. Daar gaan we het in dit gesprek dan ook zeker over hebben. En natuurlijk gaan we het hebben over sjamanisme, zijn boek Mannen zijn geen vrouwen en over het vaderschap. Want Jos is een zeer ervaren vader van drie volwassen dochters en een zoon van 14. Veel luisterplezier!

As the Trump administration targets the Smithsonian Institute for "divisive narratives" and "improper ideology," it got us thinking about how we preserve our history and everything that builds it, like language. So we're revisiting an episode from last year from the Lakota Nation in South Dakota over language — who preserves it, who has the right to the stories told in it, and who (literally) owns it.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Send us a textThis week, Julia Marie shares the stories of two men who each received signals from their Inner Guidance System. One recognized the signals, but chose to finish the job he was working on. The other waited patiently for a clear signal from the Universe as to what his next step should be.Same source for the guidance, with very different results. This is the power of free will choice.The first story is about a young business owner who repeatedly saw the numbers 1 and 4 in various combinations, which he recognized as a sign from his angels. [03:28] Despite these intuitive warnings, he ignored them and ended up having a serious fall from a roof that caused him injury. [07:42] He learned to trust and follow his intuitive guidance more closely after this experience. [10:02]The second story is about a Lakota man who was adopted as a child and later found his way back to his tribe. [11:17] When faced with a difficult career decision, he turned to his spiritual connection and intuition for guidance. [13:31] He received a clear sign in the form of a childhood lullaby that helped him decide to take on a new leadership role serving his Native American community.

A haunting image of an unnamed Native child and a recovered story of the American West In 1868, celebrated Civil War photographer Alexander Gardner traveled to Fort Laramie to document the federal government's treaty negotiations with the Lakota and other tribes of the northern plains. Gardner, known for his iconic portrait of Abraham Lincoln and his visceral pictures of the Confederate dead at Antietam, posed six federal peace commissioners with a young Native girl wrapped in a blanket. The hand-labeled prints carefully name each of the men, but the girl is never identified.  As The Girl in the Middle: A Recovered History of the American West (Princeton University Press, 2025) goes in search of her, it draws readers into the entangled lives of the photographer and his subjects. Martha A. Sandweiss paints a riveting portrait of the turbulent age of Reconstruction and westward expansion. She follows Gardner from his birthplace in Scotland to the American frontier, as his dreams of a utopian future across the Atlantic fall to pieces. She recounts the lives of William S. Harney, a slave-owning Union general who earned the Lakota name “Woman Killer,” and Samuel F. Tappan, an abolitionist who led the investigation into the Sand Creek massacre. And she identifies Sophie Mousseau, the girl in Gardner's photograph, whose life swerved in unexpected directions as American settlers pushed into Indian Country and the federal government confined Native peoples to reservations. Spinning a spellbinding historical tale from a single enigmatic image, The Girl in the Middle reveals how the American nation grappled with what kind of country it would be as it expanded westward in the aftermath of the Civil War. Martha A. Sandweiss is professor emerita of history at Princeton University, where she is founding director of the Princeton & Slavery Project. Caleb Zakarin is editor at the New Books Network.

Send us a textQueridos pajaritos del playa y serpientes de sabrosos,I'm back in the saddle after a lengthy and rejuvenating hiatus in lindissimo y poderoso Mexico. This ep is a hodge podge affair, just shaking off the rust and hopefully inspiring some provocative thoughts and energizing mental momentum. Featured in this episode are some words from legendary Lakota medicine man Lame Deer, some history and observations regarding the resplendent, distinctive and admirably adaptable Mazatec tribe of N. Oaxaca, and a brief bio of an under-appreciated Afro-Mestizo hero of early Mexican independence and abolition, Vicente Ramon Guerrero.I'll have much more to say about my time in Mexico, but I am still integrating the experience and these things require the massaging currents of time. Thank you for being alive and present, and for staying a supporter of the podcast, and thank you for understanding about the ebbs, flows and eddies of the creative process. un amor, lr kerkawwww TRACKLIST Deep Breath Relaxing Music - 15 Minute Deep MeditationJohn Fire Lame Deer - The Spirit Is In YouGirls Love Soul 019 ft.

In this episode, we dive deep into the rich and often overlooked indigenous history of what we now call Sasquatch or Bigfoot. Drawing from centuries of oral traditions and documented encounters, we explore how Native American and First Nations peoples across North America have long maintained detailed knowledge of these forest beings. Brian shares personal experiences with these creatures while acknowledging the importance of maintaining healthy skepticism about evidence. The episode highlights the remarkable consistency in descriptions from tribes that had no contact with one another – from physical characteristics like height and hair covering to behaviors such as wood knocking and whistling communications.We journey across the continent, examining traditions from the Pacific Northwest's Coast Salish peoples (who gave us the term "Sasquatch"), the California tribes' accounts of Oh-mah, the Lakota's sacred Chiye-tanka, and many others. The narrative explores how these weren't simply folk tales but sophisticated ecological knowledge embedded with practical information about forest stewardship and proper protocols for respecting all beings.The episode also addresses the impact of colonization on these traditions, including missionary suppression and boarding schools that disrupted knowledge transmission. Despite these challenges, we learn how many tribes are now revitalizing these traditions through cultural preservation programs, educational initiatives, and even formal research partnerships that blend traditional knowledge with contemporary scientific methods.Listeners will gain insight into the diverse perspectives within indigenous communities today – from those who maintain literal belief in these beings to those who interpret the traditions metaphorically as embodiments of ecological relationships. Throughout the episode, we examine how these ancient traditions align with modern encounters, suggesting continuity of experience across cultures and time periods.Whether you're a dedicated Sasquatch researcher, interested in indigenous knowledge systems, or simply curious about one of North America's most enduring mysteries, this episode offers a respectful and comprehensive look at a subject that bridges the ancient and contemporary, the spiritual and the scientific.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsVisit Untold Radio AMBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

In this episode, I sit down with Linda and Luke Black Elk to explore the deep-rooted food traditions of the Lakota people. We discuss how indigenous foods—like bison, corn, and the Three Sisters planting system—have influenced global cuisine, and the ongoing efforts to reclaim food sovereignty. Linda and Luke share powerful stories about resilience, land access, and the cultural significance of traditional dishes like Bapa soup and wasna (pemmican). This conversation sheds light on the history, science, and spirit behind indigenous foodways—an essential part of North America's culinary heritage.

In this episode of the Journey of My Mother's Son podcast, I talk with fellow author, Mark Connor. Mark Connor is a Boxing Trainer and a Writer from Saint Paul, Minnesota. His first book, It's About Time (Millions of Copies Sold for Dad), is a saga wrapped around a package of poems, guarded by angels. Through an autobiography reading like a novel, he weaves together a story of love, family, and life with twenty poems running through it, sharing his growth in the Catholic faith, the influence of Irish heritage in his hometown's American identity, his exploration of Lakota tradition within the urban American Indian community, and his understanding of how truth found in different spiritual approaches can lead others—as it led himself back—to its fullness in the revelation of Christ. Mark Connor grew up in Saint Paul, calling himself the product of a “mixed marriage,” because his father—a combat wounded Vietnam veteran—grew up across the street from St. Columba parish in the Midway district, while his mother—a school teacher who later became a lawyer—came from the Holy Rosary parish “across the border, in South Minneapolis.” Born in Minneapolis and raised in Saint Paul, he began boxing at age 10, at the Mexican American Boxing Club on the city's East Side, the area of the city from which he formed his understanding of the world, anchoring his perception of direction to the family house and the rising of the sun outside his bedroom window.  He had 102 amateur fights, made it to three national tournaments, and competed against some of the nation's top world class boxers. He became the Upper Midwest Golden Gloves lightweight champion at 17 and traveled to the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, CO, two days after graduating high school, competing in the 1987 trials for the Pan American Games. Raised in the East Side parish of St. Pascal Baylon, where he attended first through sixth grade, Mark's father, a graduate of [Bishop] Cretin High School in Saint Paul, insisted Mark and his brother, David (13 days less than one year older than Mark), each attend its rival, St. Thomas Academy, in suburban Mendota Heights, from 7th through 12th grade, an all-boys Catholic Military high school. Having begun writing seriously at 16 and starting college at 18, Mark began an internal struggle between the academic path and boxing, spending one and a half years, respectively, at three schools—Regis University in Denver, Co., the University of St. Thomas in Saint Paul, and the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis—earning his BA in English from the University of Minnesota. He was inactive as a boxer for only one and a half of those years, but never felt he was able to reach his potential while emersed in study, so upon graduation, he continued Boxing. Mark boxed competitively for two and half more years, then, deciding not to follow his gym mates—two of whom became world champions—in a professional boxing career, and believing it was already late in life to join the military, he went on an adventure, driving to Seattle, WA, securing a job on a salmon fishing boat headed to Southeast Alaska. A Year later, instead of returning to the commercial fisherman's life, he traveled with a friend to a Lakota Sundance ceremony on the Rosebud reservation, leading eventually to a job at Aín Dah Yung (Our Home) Center, a Native American Indian temporary emergency homeless shelter for youth aged 5 to 17, in Saint Paul. Within this setting, continuing to write freelance articles and periodically working on fiction and poetry, he eventually began a personal training service and worked with both competitive and recreational boxers, as well professionals and amateurs, wrote about boxing, and contemplated his faith. While recognizing that truth, goodness, and beauty are indeed present in the faith traditions of the indigenous community of friends welcoming him, as both a guest and a relative, he eventually reembraced the beauty, goodness, and truth of his Catholic faith and has since attempted to responsibly discern God's will for him, according to his legitimate talents and desires. Within that sincere effort, at the end of September, 2019, his father, who'd been patiently guiding him, died from a heat attack, just before America—and the world—appeared to enter a new era of chaos within which we are attempting to stabilize ourselves. Mark wrote the first lines of his book, It's About Time (Millions of Copies Sold for Dad) the day his father died, Monday, September 30, 2019. However, over the next year, as his country went through the impeachment and acquittal of a president, endured the trauma of an economic shutdown over a mysterious virus coming from a lab leak in China, and his beloved Twin Cities blew up in fiery riots, Mark worked when he could (the Boxing gyms and churches were closed due to Governor's orders), helped his mother who was diagnosed with a fatal heart disease, and daily mourned his father. He helped protect American Indian buildings with American Indian Movement (AIM) Patrol, and he eventually got part-time work as a bouncer, working bar security when restaurants were allowed to reopen. But he didn't do much until, as Christmas 2020 approached, he resolved that in the coming year he would do something with which his father would be happy. Organizing himself and setting his goal, he began writing the book his father—who'd nagged Mark about always insisting he was a writer yet never publishing a book—was never to see published in his earthly lifetime. Beginning the daily process of writing on February 9, 2021, Mark completed the first draft of It's About Time (Millions of Copies Sold for Dad) just before Easter on the Monday of Holy Week, March 29, 2021. In this book he tells the tale of his search for a meaningful life, appreciating the gift of God's love that life actually is, and how he sees now that the guardian angels were always guiding him and his family through it all. A contract with a humble little local publisher was severed over editorial differences on Christmas Eve, 2022, so Mark relied on his father's gift, his high school education, accepting help from his St. Thomas Academy contacts, specifically his literary advisor, Dan Flynn (Author of Famous Minnesotans: Past and Present) and legal advisor Kelly Rowe, and Mark's classmate, Tony Zirnhelt, and the book won the 2024 Irish Network Minnesota Bloomsday Literary Award and was published, through Connemara Patch Press, on Father's Day, June 16. Unfortunately, Mark's mother, who'd read the manuscript, never saw it in print, having collapsed in his arms and died October 22, 2023. Yet Mark continues on in hopeful and confident prayer that she—Mrs. Nanette Jane Connor—is watching over him, as she promised she would, next to his father—Robert J. Connor—while gazing perpetually into the Beatific Vision of the face of God. To find out more about Mark, you can check out his website at https://boxersandwritersmagazine.com/.

“Kimmy Goes to Her Happy Place!” (April 15, 2016) Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is a funny show. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is a flawed show. These two things can both be true simultaneously, and you can not like the plotline given to Jane Krakowski's character, where it turns out she's actually Lakota posing as white, and still enjoy other elements of the show. Case in point: Titus Andromedon (Tituss Burgess) is exactly the kind of messy, selfish, desperate gay character people want to see realized onscreen. What's more? He's very, very funny — and so it this episode, which features a puppet cameo you won't see coming. We even have episode transcripts courtesy of Sarah Neal. Our logo was designed by Rob Wilson. This episode's art was designed by Ian O'Phelan.

Join host Paul LaRoche as he narrates Chapter 4 of his life's story, 'A Special Gift,' from the Hidden Heritage book by Barbara Marshak. The episode begins with a traditional Thanksgiving morning, illustrating the warmth of familial bonds and shared stories. Paul listens to his daughter Nicole's vivid dream, sparking a deep connection to their Native American roots. As the day unfolds, the family partakes in a feast, reflecting on rich heritage and traditions. Young Shane experiences the thrill of the outdoors and pheasant hunting, while Paul and his family delve into the historical tapestry of the Lakota tribes and the significant treaties that shaped today's reservations. The narrative gracefully weaves past and present, as family members recount personal stories, revealing musical talents handed down through generations. By the episode's end, Paul is left reflecting on his ancestral legacy, inspired by the music in his blood and the stories waiting to be discovered.

Episode No. 695 features artist Cannupa Hanska Luger and curator Ken Myers. The Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University is presenting "Cannupa Hanska Luger: Speechless," an examination of the complications of colonial histories from an Indigenous perspective. "Speechless" particularly focuses on how narratives, myths, and histories are constructed through the concept of the cargo cult, which developed as a result of Western military campaigns that delivered supplies to foreign lands inhabited by Indigenous peoples. These cults formed around the provisions that were delivered by the imperial forces (such as radios), the very groups that were colonizing Indigenous lands. The exhibition was curated by Apsara DiQuinzio and remains on view through July 6. Concurrently, Luger's work may be seen in the 16th Sharjah Biennial, "Breath(e): Toward Climate and Social Justice" at the Moody Center, Rice University, and in "Indigenous Identities: Here, Now & Always" at the Zimmerli Art Museum, Rutgers University. Luger is an enrolled member of the Three Affiliated Tribes of Fort Berthold and is Mandan, Hidatsa, Arikara and Lakota. His work, across a wide range of media, extends cultural awareness and enables action. His work has been presented in solo or two-person shows by the Public Art Fund, New York; the University of Michigan Museum of Art; the Peabody Essex Museum, Salem, Mass., and more. Works discussed on the program include: A single-channel version of Luger's Future Ancestral Technologies: New Myth, 2021; Luger's extended Mirror Shield project; and Luger's Uŋziwoslal Wašičuta installation series, which celebrates the Transportable Intergenerational Protection Infrastructure (TIPI), 2021-. Myers is the curator of "Painted with Silk: The Art of Early American Embroidery" at the Detroit Institute of Arts. "Painted with Silk" looks at how US schoolgirl embroideries made from the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries helped build and extend ideas around nation, gender, class, and religion. It also includes contemporary embroideries by Elaine Reichek that repurpose the form of earlier embroideries and investigate their constructions of gender, class, and race. The exhibition is on view through June 15. Instagram: Cannupa Hanska Luger, Tyler Green.

Public and tribal radio and television stations are fortifying their defenses ahead of what could be the biggest funding threat they've ever faced. President Donald Trump and his allies have repeatedly called for an end to federal funding for public broadcasters. Bills proposed in Congress would go as far as eliminating the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, the nearly 60-year-old entity created by Congress to facilitate federal support for non-commercial media. We'll hear from broadcasters about what changes might be in store. GUESTS Peggy Berryhill (Muscogee Creek Nation), co-founder of KGUA, president of the Native Media Resource Center and an independent producer Lenora Ward (Iñupiaq), general manager of KOTZ, Kotzebue Broadcasting Brian Wadsworth (Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe), chief operating officer for Native Public Media Oi Zephier (Lakota, Dakota, and Nakota and Southern Cheyenne and Arapaho), station manager of KILI

Thomas is joined by educator, musician, activist, and creator of First Voices Radio, Tiokasin Ghosthorse. Tiokasin is a member of the Cheyenne River Lakota Nation of South Dakota, and shares deep wisdom from the Lakota worldview, language, and traditions. He and Thomas explore ways for us to redefine our relationship with Mother Earth, moving away from a mindset of separation and domination towards one of interconnectedness, mutual becoming, and intuition. Tiokasin shares how we can be more in tune with Earth's natural rhythm to become more present in the now and more connected to the future. The Indigenous way of being involves an openness to seeing and feeling our ancestors—not just our human ancestors, but also the earth itself. Tiokasin stresses the need for us to de-center humans in order to reconnect with nature, and demonstrates how understanding the living Lakota language can affect a cultural mindset shift in that direction.

Le mont Rushmore, situé dans l'État du Dakota du Sud aux États-Unis, est l'un des monuments les plus emblématiques du pays. Cette sculpture monumentale représente les visages de quatre présidents américains : George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt et Abraham Lincoln, symbolisant chacun des aspects clés de l'histoire et des valeurs des États-Unis. Les présidents représentés 1. George Washington (1732-1799) : Premier président des États-Unis et père fondateur du pays, il représente la naissance de la nation et incarne les idéaux de liberté et d'indépendance. 2. Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826) : Troisième président et principal auteur de la Déclaration d'Indépendance, il symbolise l'expansion du pays, notamment à travers l'achat de la Louisiane qui a doublé le territoire américain en 1803. 3. Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919) : Vingt-sixième président, il représente le développement et la modernisation des États-Unis, notamment par ses réformes économiques et son implication dans la construction du canal de Panama. 4. Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) : Seizième président, il incarne l'unité et la préservation du pays, ayant dirigé les États-Unis pendant la guerre de Sécession et aboli l'esclavage avec la proclamation d'émancipation. L'histoire de la sculpture Le projet du mont Rushmore a été initié en 1927, à l'instigation de l'historien local Doane Robinson, qui voulait attirer les touristes dans la région des Black Hills. Il a fait appel au sculpteur Gutzon Borglum, célèbre pour ses travaux monumentaux, afin de créer une œuvre qui célébrerait les grandes figures de l'histoire américaine. Borglum a choisi le mont Rushmore pour sa composition granitique résistante à l'érosion et sa visibilité. La sculpture a été réalisée grâce à des techniques de dynamitage et de sculpture de précision. Plus de 400 ouvriers ont travaillé sur le site, souvent dans des conditions difficiles. Le projet a été financé en partie par le gouvernement fédéral et s'est poursuivi pendant 14 ans, malgré des interruptions liées à la Grande Dépression et aux contraintes budgétaires. La sculpture a été officiellement achevée en 1941, après la mort de Borglum, et son fils Lincoln Borglum a supervisé les derniers travaux. Héritage et controverses Le mont Rushmore est aujourd'hui un symbole patriotique puissant, attirant des millions de visiteurs chaque année. Toutefois, il est également au cœur de controverses, car il est situé sur des terres sacrées pour les peuples amérindiens Lakota, qui contestent l'appropriation de leur territoire par les autorités américaines. En somme, le mont Rushmore incarne à la fois la grandeur de l'histoire américaine et les tensions culturelles liées à son passé. Hébergé par Acast.

 Do you believe in UFOs? Is it possible that there are extraterrestrials here on planet Earth? Do unidentified beings walk among us? This is so hard to imagine, but humanity is at a time where we can take a leap in consciousness and understand that this may be a possibility. Our guest today is the esteemed civil rights attorney, Daniel Sheehan. Daniel is Harvard-educated and has worked on high-profile cases such as the Karen Silkwood case and Iran Contra civil case. He is also at the forefront of the unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) Disclosure movement which aims to bring transparency to this phenomenon. He is also the founder of the New Paradigm Institute and the Romero Institute, dedicated to social and environmental justice.   Today Danny talks about the direct link between spirituality and consciousness. When confronted by challenges, we can turn to spirituality. When we see how incredibly vast our universe really is, it's easier to imagine that we are not alone. There are different dimensions and different realities. We have limited understanding, but by opening up to exploration, and especially by learning from indigenous peoples, we can broaden our perspectives. As a civil rights attorney, Daniel has done  a lot of work with the Lakota people. He explains how they believe they come from the Pleiades in their spiritual tradition. This is a specific constellation visible to us.  They believe they have had a lot of encounters with Star People. The Shamans receive messages which they share within their community. We have evidence of tens of thousands of people having these encounters around the world. Now science is studying this phenomenon, and our government is investigating these incidents. Our worldviews depend on whether we view them as a threat, or as spiritual, enlightened beings. We are in a period right now where more people are open to this information. It may help us to answer profound questions – it may be a threat, or it may be an opportunity. We have Free Will and we can explore and determine our own answers. Daniel Sheehan will be speaking at the upcoming Conscious Life Expo at the LAX Hilton on Saturday, February 8, 2025, at 2pm Pacific. His topic is “The Present State ‘Official U.S. Government Disclosure' of the UFO/E.T. Reality.” He will also have a post-conference on Monday, Feb. 10. The Conscious Life Expo held at the LAX Hilton in Los Angeles will take place Feb 7 – 10, 2025. Lisa Garr will be moderating the Radical Healing Panel on Sunday, Feb 9 at Noon Pacific.

This is a podcast interview that took place almost five years ago. We've chosen to air that episode again because it really speaks about the formative stages of the Earthkeepers podcast, and serves as a reminder that one of our core purposes has always been, even from the very beginning, to give more air space to “corrective voices from the margins” as often as we can. And that includes Indigenous voices.  In this episode Forrest talks with Lenore Three Stars. Lenore is a member of the board for Circlewood—and Circlewood, as you may know, is the larger creation care community to which the Earthkeepers belongs. In many ways, Lenore has had a shaping influence on the priorities and values of this podcast. In particular, as a member of the Lakota people, she has helped us to understand and embrace elements of an indigenous world view.  Find us on our website: Earthkeepers Support the Earthkeepers podcast Check out the Ecological Disciple

Descended from elders taken into residential boarding schools intended to strip her people of their culture, she is continually in the process of remembering and listening for the way Home, back to the true nature of being Human Being.   This little piece explores the sacred role of women in indigenous traditions and their deep connection to Mother Earth. With wisdom from the Lakota, Kogi, and other cultures, Pat describes how women are the backbone of families and communities. She shares with us the power of moon time, the importance of reintroducing Grandmother's Lodges and the need to restore balance between the masculine and feminine. This is a call for women to reclaim their spiritual authority—not through dominance, but by aligning with the natural laws and rythms of life. In this TIMELESS we go beyond the billionaire's boys club and explore How True Respect for Women Dismantles Toxic Power. We hope it moves you deeply.   Links from this episode and more at allthatweare.org

Through our fence, breakthrough thou not… we are protected though we may be frightened. Our life you may not steal, though we may feel SCARED TO DEATH."

Chief Red Cloud was a Lakota leader in the late 1800s, when the conflict between the US government and Native Americans was intense, and he was the tribal chief when the Catholic church built a boarding school on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. Generations of children were traumatized by their experience at the school, whose mission was to strip them of their language and culture.Red Cloud's descendant Dusty Lee Nelson and other members of the community are seeking reparations from the church. “In my heart, in my soul, I feel like the best thing that they can do is to exit the reservation, return all property, and pay us,” Nelson said.In the second half of Reveal's two-part collaboration with ICT (formerly Indian Country Today), members of the Pine Ridge community put pressure on the Catholic church to share information about the boarding school it ran on the reservation.ICT reporter Mary Annette Pember, a citizen of the Red Cliff Band of Ojibwe, travels to the archives of the Bureau of Catholic Indian Missions. She discovers that many records are redacted or off-limits, but then comes across a diary written by nuns. Buried in the diary entries is information about the school's finances, the massacre at Wounded Knee, and children who died at the school more than a century ago. This is a rebroadcast of an episode that originally aired in October 2022.  Support Reveal's journalism at Revealnews.org/donatenow Subscribe to our weekly newsletter to get the scoop on new episodes at Revealnews.org/weekly Instagram
