Now is the Time


"The American Indian is the vengeful ghost lurking in the back of the troubled American Mind." -Gary Snyder, Earth House Hold, 1968

"But now is the time for a destructive order to be reversed, and it is well to inform other races that the aboriginal culture of America was not devoid of beauty. Furthermore, In denying the Indian his anscestral rights and heritages the white race is but robbing itself. But America can be revived,  rejuvenated, by recognizing a native school of thought. The Indian can save America." - Luther Standing Bear, Land of the Spotted Eagle, 1933
