OCEANSIDE: Annual powwow celebrates Mother Earth : North County Times - Californian
Protecting "Mother Earth" was the big topic of welcoming prayers and speeches.
"More people are coming to understand our philosophy," said Saginaw Grant of the Sac-n-Fox, Iowa and Otoe-Missouria tribes.
Grant, an actor and activist who boasts a long list of film and television credits, said he attracts crowds of camera-wielding fans at every powwow he attends throughout the country.
The recent debates over global warming have focused more attention on the speeches he has made for decades on the need to protect Earth's finite resources, the former Marine said.
He cited recent weather disasters around the world.
"There are signs she's getting tired. We better pay heed and make peace with Mother Earth," Grant said.
