GENERATIONS
GENERATIONS!
HOW MANY DOES IT TAKE
BEFORE WE SELL OUT AND GIVE UP
WHO WE ARE?
WHERE WE HAVE COME FROM
WHERE WE ARE GOING
LIKE DUST IN THE WIND.
ARE WE A FORGOTTEN HERITAGE, AND FADING NATION?
WHEN DID WE LOSE PRIDE?
WHEN DID WE LOSE INTEREST
IN THE BLOOD OF OUR GENERATIONS
THAT TAUGHT US TO FACE THE WIND
AND FIGHT BACK?
WHEN DID WE STOP TEACHING OUR NEW GENERATIONS
OF A RICH CULTURE AND HISTORY
THAT IS FAR BETTER THAN THIS
SO CALLED MODERN, BUT SHALLOW WORLD?
STEP FORWARD PEOPLE AND TEACH
YOUR CHILDREN, GRANDCHILDREN, GREAT GRANDCHILDREN
THAT THEY THEMSELVES MUST STAND UP
AND STEP FORWARD TO PRACTICE, TEACH
AND CARRY ON WHO WE ARE…
GENERATIONS! MOVING FORWARD!
WITH PRIDE HONOR AND DETERMINATION!
THE PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL…
WORK THAT KEEPS OUR PEOPLE FROM BEING
CONSUMED AND FORGOTTEN BY THE MASSES
OF THIS PRESENT UNCARING WORLD.
LEST OUR GENERATIONS BECOME NOTHING MORE
THEN DEAD NATIVE NATIONS.
BLOWING LIKE DUST IN THE WIND.
CREATOR! SAVE OUR NATIVE GENERATIONS!

Big Standing Bear (pictured at left in red tribal regalia) commissioned a special necklace for Keith Buffalo Healer Dobbs (also pictured at left),
a webmaster for the Northern Cherokee Nation. “I wanted something special like Big Standing Bear has made for himself and wears to tribal functions,” stated Dobbs. “He knew I had an appreciation for buffalo so he incorporated buffalo teeth into the piece,” Dobbs continued. In addition to four polished buffalo teeth, Big Standing Bear included African turquoise which is in the jasper family. The white beads are called “bone hair pipes” and the silver beads are nickel while the black beads are hemalyke. The popular hemalyke is a mirror-like metallic black “stone” which is a look-alike for natural hematite. The small round white discs in the necklace are bone, as well. “I couldn’t be more pleased,” shared Dobbs. “It’s great to own a piece that has been created by a tribal brother.” Buffalo Teeth Necklace |
