My Indigenous world is integral to an enlightened citizenship. For thousands of years we lived lives of dignity and integrity. We came into our leadership by staying within our time-honored knowledge that included extending honor and respect to all members of the living world. In today’s world, there is an urgency for the Indigenous voice to be heard; learning about the richness of our knowledge helps to strengthen the resolve for all people to create strong cultural, social, political and economic connections.  That is why, as many of our prophecies say, we are being called back to the drum to share what we know. Let’s talk.

In celebration of Indigenous Culture, all presentations can include the interactive
playing of two Big Drums.
