The relationship between this man and the People is so heart lifting. He is truly a Healer. One of the things it brings up for me is how core “relationship” is in both Native American and African cultures. Relationship to land, to people, to Ancestors. I hope all who experience this can see and feel that and keep consciously returning to the Sacred. That to me is the challenge of the 21st Century. Rebirth!
