As the conversation developed, I read more and more of your post about Slow Turtle and his (and most Indigenous people's) understanding of the core grievous distortions of settler's culture, particularly imagining that democracy can exist in a hierarchical mindset without spirit, the entire group asked me to send the post and so I will send out the link tonight.
wonderful! .. The video interviews are also a good resource. I’m interested in what your friends and colleagues think… if they are willing to post comments.
Thank you Peter for this piece. Using it today in the 19 Ways gathering along with the photos by Nick Brandt which document the consequences of a dominating society that has no heart, spirit or true culture as Slow Turtle teaches.

Note: The late George Helm, singer/song writer & Hawaiian Sovereignty Activist said, "to lose sovereign control of our Land & Resources is one thing, but to lose our Language is Culturcide.
Of course, Genocide too. Language the expression of Culture. Language defines & describes Culture.
George Helm was murdered because he was the greatest threat to the US Military’s illegal occupation of the Hawaiian Islands. So, Hawaii is a Major Military Outpost in the Pacific Theater of War.
Certain events led to my posting this…. starting with an ‘accidental’ finding of a copy of the long interview… and then realizing the anniversary day was coming soon…. I’m grateful for such guidance….
Aloha Slow Turtle and the People of the Morning Light.

Thank you so much for this beautiful tribute to Slow Turtle and the truth in the lessons.

Aloha Peter, on this October Full Moon 10/29/23.
I would like to share some Hawaiian Language:
Moon= Mahina
New Moon= Mahina hou
Full Moon= Mahina piha
Moon Flower= Koali pehu, or Koani pehu
Moon Light= Malamalama o ka mahina
Pale Moon Light= Mahinahina
The moon light shines brightly= Ka pa konane a ka mahina.

NAMU MYOHO RENGE KYO !
Peter-san ,
We really appreciated you posted this on his
anniversary commemoration day, particularly
this year which is the 27th passing anniversary according to the Buddhist traditional counting and 27th is an important
Significant anniversary.
We were thinking originally to visit the South
Cape Beach from where his ashes were released to the Ocean by Jim, to honor him.
However, because of so many things have been happening , we had to reschedule our visit there, and in stead we had prayer service at the Pagoda.
With respect and gratitude for our relations.
🙏
