This was to only remind that the white brothers and sisters, they can still attend and pray with us at a ceremony, if the Spiritual Leader allows this. Again it is the hoc'oka, the center, where our Oyate stand, that needs to be protected. This is also a reminder even with our own people, they need to prepare their life to stand in that alter and learn these protocols of a drug and alcohol free life. http://saponitown.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-643.html We are the only Indigenous Nation in the world that has opened our sacred ceremonials, of the alter, out to the public. Now we are seeing the abuse and violations. Anyone can read a book or get close to our ceremonial people, then go out and practice our ways without proper protocols. Anyone may dance the sun dance if he will do as the Oglalas do," - Chief American Horse (Sept. 14, 1896) In the early 70s, Chief Fools Crow and my father, Stanley Looking Horse, decided to allow other native nations to participate in these rites. Their reasons were based on the fact that most nations have lost their ways through assimilation or lack of teachers to teach their indigenous ways," Looking Horse said. http://saponitown.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-643.html
