Charles Alexander Eastman:
(1858-1939) Also known as Ohiyesa, was a Dakota author, physician, and political reformer who documented the history of the Sioux from a personal perspective. Born in Minnesota, he later moved to Canada, where he was given the name Ohiyesa after a lacrosse victory. Eastman became a prominent figure in both Native American and Euro-American society and made significant contributions to literature and indigenous rights.
We believe profoundly in silence-the sign of a perfect equilibrium. Silence is the absolute poise or balance of body, mind, and spirit.
