A powerful story of one man's redemption through the Lakota Sun Dance ceremony. • Written by the only white man to be confirmed as a Sundance Chief by traditional Lakota elders. • Includes forewords by prominent Lakota spiritual leaders Leonard Crow Dog, Charles Chipps, Mary Thunder, and Jamie Sams. The Sun Dance is the largest and most important ceremony in the Lakota spiritual tradition, the one that ensures the life of the people for another year. In 1988 Michael Hull was extended an invitation to join in a Sun Dance by Lakota elder Leonard Crow Dog-- a controversial action because Hull is white. This was the beginning of a spiritual journey that increasingly interwove the life of the author with the people, process, and elements of Lakota spirituality. On this journey on the Red Road, Michael Hull confronted firsthand the transformational power of Lakota spiritual practice and the deep ambivalence many Indians had about opening their ceremonies to a white man. Sun Dancing presents a profound look at the elements of traditional Lakota ceremonial practice and the ways in which ceremony is regarded as life-giving by the Lakota. Through his commitment to following the Red Road, Michael Hull gradually won acceptance in a community that has rejected other attempts by white America to absorb its spiritual practices, leading to the extraordinary step of his confirmation as a Sun Dance Chief by Leonard Crow Dog and other Lakota spiritual leaders.

About 1875 the Crows abandoned their own Sun Dance, but they continued to carry out other traditional rites despite opposition from missionaries and the federal government. In 1941, Crow Indians from Montana sought out leaders of the Sun Dance among the Wind River Shoshonis in Wyoming and under the direction of John Truhujo, made the ceremony a part of their lives. In The Shoshoni-Crow Sun Dance, Fred W. Voget draws on forty years of fieldwork to describe the people and circumstances leading to this singular event, the nature of the ceremony, the reconciliation’s with Christianity and peyotism, the role of the Sun Dance as a catalyst for the reassertion of Crow cultural identity, and the place the Sun Dance now holds in Crow life and culture. Voget’s description includes photographs and diagrams of the Sun Dance.

Learn about the story of the Sundance Kid with iMinds insightful knowledge series. The last scene of George Ray Hill's 1969 film, 'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid' depicts the two titular outlaws running out from a building surrounded by Bolivian officers, into a frenzied gun-battle in which they are drastically, and hopelessly, out-numbered. The final shot freezes on Sundance, played by Robert Redford, and Butch, played by Paul Newman, as they run, injured, but with their guns ready, into the fire. This shot hints at what will come next, and the audience is left to imagine Sundance and Butch falling to the floor with their bodies perforated by a hailstorm of bullets. It would be an effective way to end a film about two outlaws. But there is a final scene, which shows them still alive, and ready to fight. This may be seen as overly optimistic. But it is in line with many theories, speculation and rumours that surround The Sundance Kid's life and death. iMinds brings targeted knowledge to your eReading device with short information segments to whet your mental appetite and broaden your mind.

1969 was Robert Redford's breakout year, when he starred with Paul Newman in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Since that time he was continuously successful, either as an actor or director. His concern for the environment, particularly in the American West, has made him an important spokesman for conservation, often lending his name to causes and charities that help support preservation and endangered species. This comprehensive biography is based on extensive interviews with friends and colleagues, as well as assistance provided by Redford himself.

The setting is the high rugged plateau of North Dakota where each summer Sundancers gather to reenact a ceremony that was given to the people of the northern plains so far in the past there are no written records. Dancing With The Sun is a collection of prose adapted from the author's journals compiled over a twelve year period at the Sun Dance on the Mandan, Hidatsa, Arikara Reservation, Fort Berthold, North Dakota. It is a deeply personal and spiritual book filled with the rich imagery of the sacred Dance, the Sweat Lodge, the Vision Quest, the power of dreams, the attachments of friends, hope, courage, and characters who thrill, dismay and sometimes shock. Most of all it is a book about the land, a saga of place in the American landscape with a lovely and troubled history that serves as a reminder that one's past and place of birth leave an indelible stain on each of us. The book is organized into 5 sections, each section covering a particular aspect of the Sun Dance ceremony. Hanblechia (crying for a vision), Inipi (sweat lodge), Mitakuye Oyasin (all my relations), Wiwanyang Wacipi (they dance gazing at the sun), and Toksa Akhe (I'll see you again someday). . It is North Dakota, a kingdom of grass, rocky outcroppings, willow groves, and worn out boots turned upside down on fence posts. It is where the razor-breath of winter is never far away and has no love for summer. Cows are dark spots on the horizon, and the wind blows as much as in Kansas. There in the red - skirted majesty of the Sun Dance the people tell their tales. Mike Joseph relates how he smoked his pipe with the Dali Lima. Foolish Boy describes the Native American Church ceremony. Leland Dubois the Smoke Jumper speaks about forest fires. Richard from Canada laughs about the white guy when hunting who shot his own horse. Allen White explains how he played a savage in a movie. Lloyd Elm tells about the haunted masks of the Long House. Paul Goodiron enlightens with his stories of Swift Boats in Vietnam. Adam of the Missing Children describes riding a bike across America. The stories are haunting, powerful, poignant, and sensual, brooding tales of the modern West. Laying down sentences like trail dust, Rickard writes with insight and compassion about the fragility of Native lives, the tragedy of disappearing towns, howling-dog winters, and depressing drought. Like a pebble tossed into a pond, Rickard journeys outward from the center of his universe into wider and wider peripheries, constantly searching, a restless nomad who transcends his own culture without abandoning it, leaves but never forgets his beginnings. Dancing With the Sun is a grand and glorious Western landscape written by an artist, historian, philosopher and poet who experienced most of the 20th century. A compelling and compassionate odyssey where all come together in the sun-bleached bones of the dance.
