It was a new world that saved me and changed me.The Hopi Kachina dances are hauntingly beautiful and take us back to an ancient place inside ourselves.The reservations are unlike anything in mainsream USA society. I also was a college instructor at Oglala Lakota College for three years and taught at the Navajo Reservation for one year. I saw a side of life most Americans never exprience.

This is the home of the Lakota Tribe which is also called The Sioux. A former banker, his entire life transformed into something totally different, far away from the mainstream modern United States.
