Season 13 – Episode 24

Wartime Cats

The first people who lived on the northern plains of what today is the US called themselves "Lakota", meaning "the people", a word which provides the semantic basis for Dakota. The first European people to meet the Lakota called them "Sioux", a contraction of "Nadowessioux", a now-archaic French-Canadian word meaning "snake", or enemy.

The Lakota also used a metaphor to describe the newcomers. It was "Wasi'chu", which means "takes the fat", or "greedy person". Within the modern Indian movement, "wasi'chu" has come to mean those corporations and individuals, with their governmental accomplices, that continue to covet Indian lives, land, and resources for private profit. "Wasi'chu" does not describe a race; it describes a state of mind.

This book is about resistance to that state of mind and to the economic system that rewards it.

The radiant crown rises as a symbol of light in motion, a journey woven of dreams, stars, and horizons that shine like crystal. The temples awaken with a silent resonance, guiding each step through oceans of radiance and skies that burn with the fire of dawn. Each song feels like a lantern suspended in infinity, glowing with echoes of eternity until it blossoms into a song that transcends time itself. A luminous path that crowns the listener with a light, both fragile and eternal.

Lantern of Infinity
