Mt. Pleasant Indian School-Mt. Pleasant, Michigan

It is a new  video documentary made available through American Indian Services in Lincoln Park, Michigan. I was one of the commentators in the video and was told by two Choctaw women who sit on the Indigenous Panel at the United Nations that the video is worthy of anyone's time.

The Dreamers

They walk in human form, but they do not belong here. They come from another place and consciousness. My heroes are and have always been the dreamers. Their thoughts and expressions were under an influence greater than human limitations can endorse. They speak and we are drawn to them and listen carefully to their words.
