Full Circle (Me and Pine Ridge)

November 7, 2013 by Kourtney McLean 12 Comments

[wpvideo mYPbiWiW]

full_circleIn the fall of 2013 I returned to Pine Ridge for the 4th time… during this trip I hunted buffalo in Wyoming… rented a truck… brought the meat to the REZ… shared it with the people… walked the grasslands… worked on housing issues… celebrated Halloween… recorded stories from an elder… traveled north to former tribal lands… had a vision quest there… walked the wagon tracks of the Oregon Trail… stood alone at Forts Fetterman and Laramie where treaties were made… then broken… then fought over… drove to Denver in a snowstorm… gave thanks for my family… learned that the Great Spirit forms a circle… and that the sacred number is four…

    Just finished watching it for the third time!! Some very incredible shots of the area, if the book is half as good it is bound to be a “best seller”

    Kevin. I met with you a while back to share our stories about Pine Ridge. My church traveled there couple years ago and is looking at another trip this fall.
    How is your book coming along. Would love to see it.
    The organization we work with is Re-Member. Would love to catch up with you at your convenience.
