Translators Unravel 150-year-old Dakota Letters

By ICTMN Staff January 24, 2011

For the past 10 years, Dakota elder Clifford Canku has been poring over letters written by Dakota men who were imprisoned after the Dakota Conflict of 1862.

If we want change we need to be willing to fight for it...........

Just a thought

The best way to deal with a situation is to hit them in their POCKETS.......

For instance the constant rise in gas prices...........Around vacation time folks need to not take a distant vacation...Boycott gas… Continue

History of Native American Dreamcatchers

Dreamcatchers are an authentic American Indian tradition, from the Ojibway (Chippewa) tribe. Ojibway people would tie sinew strands in a web around a small round or tear-shaped frame--in a somewhat similar pattern to how they tied webbing for their snowshoes--and hang this "dream-catcher" as a charm to protect sleeping children from nightmares. The legend is that the bad… Continue

A Christmas story enjoy

The old man sat in his gas station on a cold Christmas Eve. He hadn’t been anywhere in years since his wife had passed away. He had no decorations, no tree, no lights. It was just another day to him. He didn’t hate Christmas, just couldn’t find a reason to celebrate. There were no children in his life. His wife had gone.



Christmas winter



He was sitting there looking at the snow that had been falling for the last hour and wondering what it was all about when the door opened… Continue

A poem on peace for you to enjoy

Color Splash Rainbow Pictures, Images and Photos







'Peace' by Christine

If peace was something to hold in your hand,

Something tangible to feel, something like sand,

We could each sprinkle it all over the Earth,

From Capetown to London, from LA to Perth,

It's color would be a bright leafy green,

Glistening and shiny for all to be seen,

This would stop our anger, jealousy and tears,

Calm all our… Continue

Snowdonia trip

I have just returned from a wonderful rest and relaxing tour of Snowdonia (in North Wales) and went to the top of Mount Snowdon via train (cog train) and it was breathtakingly beautiful. Stayed at the Royal Victoria Hotel in Llanberis and each day went to a different location and took hundreds of photographs. Visited castles and gardens and the weather was sunny and warm (very unusual for this time of year in Wales as it usually rains there)
The day we left the mist rolled in and it got a…

RACCOON VISIT

Raccoon is one of my silent totems. I read my cards two days ago,
