<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>It doesn't interest me what you do
for a living.</b><br />
I want to know what you ache for, and
if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's
longing. <br />
<br />
<b>It doesn't interest me how old you
are.</b><br />
I want to know if you will risk looking
like a fool for love, for your dream,
for the adventure of being alive. <br />
<br />
<b>It doesn't interest me what planets
are squaring your moon.</b><br />
I want to know if you have touched the
center of your own sorrow, if you have
been opened by life's betrayals or have
become shriveled and closed from fear
of further pain! I want to know if you
can sit with pain, mine or your own, without
moving to hide it or fade it, or fix it.
I want to know if you can be with joy,
mine or your own, if you can dance with
wildness and let the ecstasy fill you<br />
to the tips of your fingers and toes without
cautioning us to be careful, to be realistic,
to remember the limitations of being human. <br />
<br />
<b>It doesn't interest me if the story
you are telling me is true.</b><br />
I want to know if you can disappoint another
to be true to yourself; if you can bear
the accusation of betrayal and not betray
your own soul; if you can be faithless
and therefore trustworthy.<br />
I want to know if you can see beauty even
when it's not pretty, every day, and if
you can source your own life from its
presence.<br />
I want to know if you can live with failure,
yours and mine, and still stand on the
edge of the lake and shout to the silver
of the full moon, "Yes!"<br />
<br />
<b>It doesn't interest me to know where
you live or how much money you have.</b><br />
I want to know if you can get up, after
the night of grief and despair, weary
and<br />
bruised to the bone, and do what needs
to be done to feed the children.<br />
<br />
<b>It doesn't interest me who you know
or how you came to be here.</b><br />
I want to know if you will stand in the
center of the fire with me<br />
and not shrink back.<br />
<br />
<b>It doesn't interest me where or what
or with whom you have studied.</b><br />
I want to know what sustains you, from
the inside, when all else falls away.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>I want to know if you can be alone
with yourself and if you truly like<br />
the company you keep in the empty moments.</b>

<br /></div>
<br />
<ol>
<li>Each morning upon rising, and each evening before sleeping, give
thanks for the life within you and for all life, for the good things the
Creator has given you and for the opportunity to grow a little more
each day. Consider your thoughts and actions of the past day and seek
for the courage and strengthto be a better person. Seek for the things
that will benefit others (everyone).<br />
<br />
</li>
<li>Respect. Respect means "To feel or show honor or esteem for someone
or something; to consider the well being of, or to treat someone or
somethin with deference or courtesy". Showing respect is a basic law of
life.<br /><br />
<b>a.</b> Treat every person from the tiniest child to the oldest elder with respect at all times.<br /><br />
<b>b.</b> Special respect should be given to Elders, Parents, Teachers, and Community Leaders.<br /><br />
<b>c.</b> No person should be made to feel "put down" by you; avoid hurting other hearts as you would avoid a deadly poison.<br /><br />
<b>d.</b> Touch nothing that belongs to someone else (especially
Sacred Objects) without permission, or an understanding between you. <br /><br />
<b>e.</b> Respect the privacy of every person, never intrude on a person's quiet moment or personal space.<br /><br />
<b>f.</b> Never walk between people that are conversing. <br /><br />
<b>g.</b> Never interrupt people who are conversing.<br /><br />
<b>h.</b> Speak in a soft voice, especially when you are in the
presence of Elders, strangers or others to whom special respect is
due.<br /><br />
<b>i.</b> Do not speak unless invited to do so at gatherings where
Elders are present (except to ask what is expected of you, should you
be in doubt). <br />
<br />
<b>j.</b> Never speak about others in a negative way, whether they are present or not. <br /><br />
<b>k.</b> Treat the earth and all of her aspects as your mother. Show
deep respect for the mineral world, the plant world, and the animal
world. Do nothing to pollute our Mother, rise up with wisdom to defend
her. <br /><br />
<b>l. </b>Show deep respect for the beliefs and religion of others.<br /><br />
<b>m.</b> Listen with courtesy to what others say, even if you feel that what they are saying is worthless. Listen with your heart.<br /><br />
<b>n.</b> Respect the wisdom of the people in council. Once you give
an idea to a council meeting it no longer belongs to you. It belongs
to the people. Respect demands that you listen intently to the ideas
of others in council and that you do not insist that your idea
prevail. Indeed you should freely support the ideas of others if they
are true and good, even if those ideas ideas are quite different from
the ones you have contributed. The clash of ideas brings forth the
Spark of Truth.<br /><br />
</li>
<li>Once a council has decided something in unity, respect demands that
no one speak secretly against what has been decided. If the council has
made an error, that error will become apparent to everyone in its own
time.<br /><br />
</li>
<li>Be truthful at all times, and under all conditions.<br /><br />
</li>
<li>Always treat your guests with honor and consideration. Give of your
best food, your best blankets, the best part of your house, and your
best service to your guests.<br /><br />
</li>
<li>The hurt of one is the hurt of all, the honor of one is the honor of all.<br /><br />
</li>
<li>Receive strangers and outsiders with a loving heart and as members of the human family.<br /><br />
</li>
<li>All the races and tribes in the world are like the different colored
flowers of one meadow. All are beautiful. As children of the Creator
they must all be respected.<br /><br />
</li>
<li>To serve others, to be of some use to family, community, nation, and
the world is one of the main purposes for which human beings have been
created. Do not fill yourself with your own affairs and forget your most
important talks. True happiness comes only to those who dedicate their
lives to the service of others.<br /><br />
</li>
<li>Observe moderation and balance in all things.<br /><br />
</li>
<li>Know those things that lead to your well-being, and those things that lead to your destruction.<br /><br />
</li>
<li>Listen to and follow the guidance given to your heart. Expect
guidance to come in many forms; in prayer, in dreams, in times of quiet
solitude, and in the words and deeds of wise Elders and friends. </li>
</ol>

<div style="text-align: center;">
On this land there is a great deal of timber, pine and oak,
that are much use to the white man. They send it to foreign
countries, and it brings them a great deal of money.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On the land there is much grass for cattle and horses, and
much food for the hogs.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On this land there is a great deal of tobacco raised, which
likewise brings much money. Even the streams are valuable
to the white man, to grind the wheat and corn that grows on
this land. The pine trees that are dead are valuable for tar.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All these things are lasting benefits. But if the Indians
are given just a few goods for their lands, in one or two
seasons those goods are all rotted and gone for nothing.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We are told that our lands are of no service to us, but still,
if we hold our lands, there will always be a turkey, or a
deer, or a fish in the streams for those young who will come
after us.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We are afraid if we part with any more of our lands the white
people will not let us keep as much as will be sufficient
to bury our dead.</div>

After Sitting Bull's death, Big Foot feared for the safety of <a href="http://www.pbs.org/weta/thewest/resources/archives/eight/68_08.htm">his band, which consisted in large part of widows of the Plains wars and their children</a>. Big Foot himself had been placed on the list of "fomenters of disturbances," and his arrest had been ordered. He led his band toward Pine Ridge, hoping for the protection of Red Cloud. However, he fell ill from pneumonia on the trip and was forced to travel in the back of a wagon. As they neared Porcupine Creek on December 28, the band saw 4 troops of cavalry approaching. A white flag was immediately run up over Big Foot's wagon. When the two groups met, Big Foot raised up from his bed of blankets to greet Major Samuel Whitside of the Seventh Cavalry. His blankets were stained with blood and blood dripped from his nose as he spoke.
Whitside informed him of his orders to take the band to their camp on Wounded Knee Creek. Big Foot replied that they were going that way, to Pine Ridge. The major wanted to disarm the Indians right then but was dissuaded by his scout John Shangreau, in order to avoid a fight on the spot. They agreed to wait to undertake this until they reached camp. Then, in a moment of sympathy, the major ordered his army ambulance brought forward to accept the ill Minneconjou chief, providing a warmer and more comfortable ride. They then proceeded toward the camp at Wounded Knee Creek, led by two cavalry troops with the other two troops bringing up the rear with <a href="http://www.pbs.org/weta/thewest/resources/archives/eight/68_12.htm">their Hotchkiss guns</a>. They reached the camp at twilight.
At the camp, the Indians were carefully counted; there were 120 men and 230 women and children. Major Whitside decided to wait until morning to disarm the band. They were assigned a camp site just to the south of the cavalry camp, given rations, and provided with several tents as there was a shortage of tepee covers. A stove was provided for Big Foot's tent and the doctor was sent to give aid to the chief. To guarantee against escape from the camp, two troops of cavalry were posted around the Indian tents and <a href="http://www.pbs.org/weta/thewest/resources/archives/eight/68_12.htm">the Hotchkiss guns</a> were placed on the top of a rise overlooking the camp. The guns were aimed directly at the lodges.
During the night the rest of the Seventh Cavalry marched in and set up north of Major Whitside's troops. <a href="http://www.pbs.org/weta/thewest/resources/archives/eight/68_12.htm">Two more Hotchkiss guns</a> were placed beside the two already aimed at the lodges. Colonel John Forsyth took over command of the operation and informed Major Whitside that he had orders to take the band to the railroad to be shipped to a military prison in Omaha.
In the morning a bugle call awakened the camp and the men were told to come to the center of the camp for a talk. After the talk they would move to Pine Ridge. Big Foot was brought out and seated before his tent. The older men of the band gathered around him. Hardtack was issued for breakfast. Then the Indians were informed that they would be disarmed. They stacked their guns in the center, but the soldiers were not satisfied. The soldiers went through the tents, bringing out bundles and tearing them open, throwing knives, axes, and tent stakes into the pile. Then they ordered searches of the individual warriors. The Indians became very angry but only one spoke out, the medicine man, Yellow Bird. He danced a few steps of the <a href="http://www.hanksville.org/daniel/lakota/Ghost_Dance.html" name="ghost">Ghost Dance</a> and chanted in Sioux, telling the Indians that the bullets would not hurt them, they would go right by.
The search found only two rifles, one brand new, belonging to a young man named Black Coyote. He raised it over his head and cried out that he had spent much money for the rifle and that it belonged to him. Black Coyote was deaf and therefore did not respond promptly to the demands of the soldiers. He would have been convinced to put it down by the Sioux, but that option was not possible. He was grabbed by the soldiers and spun around. Then a shot was heard; its source is not clear but it began the killing. The only arms the Indians had were what they could grab from the pile. When <a href="http://www.pbs.org/weta/thewest/resources/archives/eight/68_12.htm">the Hotchkiss guns opened up</a>, shrapnel shredded the lodges, killing men, women and children, indiscriminately. They tried to run but were shot down "like buffalo," women and children alike.
When the mass insanity of the soldiers ended, 153 dead were counted, including Big Foot; but many of the wounded had crawled off to die alone. One estimate place the final <a href="http://www.csulb.edu/projects/ais/nae/chapter_4/001_002_4.43.jpg">death toll at 350 Indian men, women and children</a>. Twenty-five soldiers died and 39 were wounded, most by their own shrapnel and bullets. The wounded soldiers were started back to the Pine Ridge agency. Then a detail of soldiers went over the battlefield, gathering up any Indians that were still alive and placing them in wagons. As a blizzard was approaching, <a href="http://www.pbs.org/weta/thewest/resources/archives/eight/68_10.htm">the dead were left where they had fallen</a>. The wagons with the wounded arrived at Pine Ridge after dark. They contained only 4 Sioux men and 47 women and children. These people were left outside in wagons in the bitter cold while a search was made for housing for them. Finally the Episcopal mission was opened, the benches removed and hay scattered over the floor as bedding for the wounded Sioux. As they were brought in, those who were conscious could see the Christmas decorations hanging from the rafters.
<a href="http://www.pbs.org/weta/thewest/resources/archives/eight/68_11.htm">After the blizzard a burial party returned to the battlefield</a>, they found <a href="http://www.pbs.org/weta/thewest/resources/archives/eight/68_09.htm">the bodies including that of Big Foot, frozen into contorted shapes</a>.
<blockquote>
I did not know then how much was ended. When I look back now from this high hill of my old age, I can still see the butchered women and children lying heaped and scattered all along the crooked gulch as plain as when I saw them with eyes still young. And I can see that something else died there in the bloody mud, and was buried in the blizzard. A people's dream died there. It was a beautiful dream . . . . the nation's hoop is broken and scattered. There is no center any longer, and the sacred tree is dead. <br />---- Black Elk </blockquote>

<b>"The white people, who are trying to make us over into their image, they want us to be what they call "assimilated," bringing the Indians into the mainstream and destroying our own way of life and our own cultural patterns.

<b>We want freedom from the white man rather than to be integrated.

We don't want power, we don't want to be congressmen, or bankers....we want to be ourselves. We want to have our heritage, because we are the owners of this land and because we belong here. </b><br />
<b>The white man says, there is freedom and justice for all. We have had "freedom and justice," and that is why we have been almost exterminated. We shall not forget this." </b><i>…From the 1927 Grand Council of American Indians</i><br />

<b>All things in the world are two. In our minds we are two, good and evil. With our eyes we see two things, things that are fair and things that are ugly.... We have the right hand that strikes and makes for evil, and we have the left hand full of kindness, near the heart. One foot may lead us to an evil way, the other foot may lead us to a good. So are all things two, all two.</b> <br />

<b>The American Indian is of the soil, whether it be the region of forests, plains, pueblos, or mesas. He fits into the landscape, for the hand that fashioned the continent also fashioned the man for his surroundings. He once grew as naturally as the wild sunflowers, he belongs just as the buffalo belonged.... </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Out of the Indian approach to life there came a great freedom, an intense and absorbing respect for life, enriching faith in a Supreme Power, and principles of truth, honesty, generosity, equity, and brotherhood as a guide to mundane relations. </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>You have noticed that everything an Indian does is in a circle, and that is because the Power of the World always works in circles, and everything tries to be round..... The Sky is round, and I have heard that the earth is round like a ball, and so are all the stars. The wind, in its greatest power, whirls. Birds make their nest in circles, for theirs is the same religion as ours.... </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Even the seasons form a great circle in their changing, and always come back again to where they were. The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood, and so it is in everything where power moves. <br /><i>…Black Elk (Oglala) 1863-1950</i></b></div>

<strong>The frog does not drink up the pond in which he lives.</strong><i>...An Indian proverb</i><br />
<br />
<strong>"I am a red man. If the Great Spirit had desired me to be a white man he would have made me so in the first place. He put in your heart certain wishes and plans, in my heart he put other and different desires. Each man is good in his sight. It is not necessary for Eagles to be Crows. We are poor..but we are free. No white man controls our footsteps. If we must die...we die defending our rights."</strong><br />

<strong>"In 1868, men came out and brought papers. We could not read them and they did not tell us truly what was in them. We thought the treaty was to remove the forts and for us to cease from fighting. But they wanted to send us traders on the Missouri, but we wanted traders where we were. When I reached Washington, the Great Father explained to me that the interpreters had deceived me. All I want is right and just." I am poor and naked, but I am the chief of the nation. We do not want riches but we do want to train our children right. Riches would do us no good. We could not take them with us to the other world. We do not want riches. We want peace and love.</strong><i>...Red Cloud</i><br />

<strong>The whites were always trying to make the Indians give up their life and live like white men....If the Indians had tried to make the whites live like them, the whites would have resisted, and it was the same way with many Dakota.</strong><i>...Wambdi Tanka (Big Eagle)</i><br />
<br />
<strong>Treat The Earth Well, It Was Not Given To You By Your Parents,It Was Loaned To You By Your Children.</strong> <br />
<i>...ancient proverb</i><br />
<br />
<strong>Brother, you say there is but one way to worship and serve the Great Spirit. If there is but one religion, why do you white people differ so much about it? Why not all agreed, as you can all read the Book?</strong><i>...Sogoyewapha, "Red Jacket" - Senaca</i><br />
<br />
<strong>When a white army battles Indians and wins, it is called a great victory, but if they lose it is called a massacre.</strong><i>...Chiksika, Shawnee</i><br />
<br />
<strong>We are now about to take our leave and kind farewell to our native land, the country the Great Spirit gave our Fathers, we are on the eve of leaving that country that gave us birth, it is with sorrow we are forced by the white man to quit the scenes of our childhood...we bid farewell to it and all we hold dear.</strong><i>...Charles Hicks, Tsalagi (Cherokee) Vice Chief speaking of The Trail of Tears, Nov. 4, 1838 </i><br />
<br />
<strong>"We did not ask you white men to come here. The Great Spirit gave us this country as a home. You had yours. We did not interfere with you. The Great Spirit gave us plenty of land to live on, and buffalo, deer, antelope and other game. But you have come here, you are taking my land from me, you are killing off our game, so it is hard for us to live. Now, you tell us to work for a living, but the Great Spirit did not make us to work, but to live by hunting. You white men can work if you want to. We do not interfere with you, and again you say why do you not become civilized? We do not want your civilization! We would live as our fathers did, and their fathers before them."</strong><i>...Crazy Horse - Sioux</i>Crazy Jayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03977716226416266382noreply@blogger.com0
