Joe Buffalo, talks about his dad being sexually molested. He talks about the effects of Indian Residential School had on him. 250 kids crying. He could hear the spirits in the walls. "Whose going to protect me?" Yet, his parents had it worse. His story about a rough life being a wild child. I am posting this video for all those who believe they can not heal. We as indigenous people were taught 'white adjacency'is the ideal because we are worthless and invisible. We depend on others. We depend on those we do not know to come safe us. So many times I've seen my leaders buy 'medicine people' to come heal us. We do not look from within our own indigenous communties for our own healers. I post this video about Joe Buffalo. As I've written this blog discussing my own journey hoping to gain the respect of men towards indigenous women and indigenous girls. It's the strength of those trained indignous women. During times when I just feel like giving up. When I hear that I am 'black listed' within my own community. I am an elder here and yet the leadership do not like what I write within my blog. Joe Buffalo talks about directlng his energy towards his craft of skatebroading rather than directing towards drug addictions. He's speaking the truth about the impact of intergenerational truama has on all our indigenous or some called all First Nations communties. We continue to lose our youth. A generation is being lost. The money directed towards Truth and Reconciation is not making its way to the 'grassroots' people instead its going to those who were educated within a colonial system that is systemic. We are our own medicine. We are those sp'sirits that our ancestors prayed to help us heal. I've said this to my nephews. We do not need to pay so called 'plastic medicine people' we do not need indigenous adjacency. Those who get money because the are associated with thrid world people like me. Yes, whats happening in the middle east and the death and distruction happened to us at some point in our history. Those who are oppressed, whose who suffer from conflict understand. We may not be hidding from bombs or gun fire, we are still dying. Society shoses who lives and who dies. We must find the courage to continue healing. As my own people as with so many Frist Nations or indigenous people (whatever is acceptatble) are experiencing. Anytime we accpet money from the government or from within our own communities, we are slienced. I am heartbroken that the victims of Nathan Chasing Horse who live within my community refuse to talk about how they are healing. This video of Joe Buffalo is prove that healing is possible without shame or fear. I only wish and hope those who were and still being effected by this 'fake, plastic medicine man' will find their courage. Since the denial of Indian Residentical School is so prevalent for decades that our own leadership pays such fake people. Thousand of dollars paid out becausse we can not see our own people's strengths. There is a new generation who are listening and I hope they hear or read my blog. Many times I've felt like i was all alone, loonely. I am human. I have needs. I still need acceptance and validation too. it's how we or I direct my energy. So my reader, I ask you to visualize me being encased in a bubble made up of postive,protective, reflective healing energy directed to saying to people "i love you!"
This was my experience in confronting Nathan Chasing Horse in 2007. He had no compassion for his victims. His propensity for girls started being more openly displayed by the summer of 2007. Documentaries, Articles, Indigenous Podcasts, My Podcast is under construction. Archival documenting yearly posts posted with transcripts will be published here. I’ll also link my YouTube videos associated with each podcast published. I also created a link to my GOFUNDME account. I may link my TikTok account

Memories of my late mother saying her dad, my grandfather taught her in a warning that the Dakota Medicine was good, but not anymore. As far back as 81 years ago, fake medicine people deceived their own people for money, power, and glory. Our grandmothers showed us through their prayers helping us celebrate love and helping us celebrate life within our families. Through my own lived experiences, I had to eliminate my own self-defeating behavior. Our people are depending on us to bring justice into our Indigenous Communities. Our Indigenous girls and women are going missing at an alarming rate and are being human trafficked. With little help in finding them or bringing their killers or abusers to justice, I started this blog. I never thought I would live to see such as year as 2023. Today, I feel blessed to be able to hold those who reached out to me in high regard. I am truly grateful, Creator’s Will guided me in my lifetime to see Nathan Chasing Horse arrested. And, yet at the same time, I grief for all his victims who died before they could see him brought to justice.
