Leo Killsback
Making a film about the Northern Cheyenne — April 16, 2009
Leo Killsback presents an insider’s view of the people of the Northern Cheyenne nation, from the “Sweet Medicine” laws used by tribal elders to lead tribal society to the root problems the people suffer from today.
“I think an outsider would have told an entirely different story,” Killsback says. “They would have told a story that didn’t pay much attention to the contemporary issues and problems of our people. Our spirituality and culture are ancient… those teachings of peace, virtue, generosity, kindness, humbleness… all these virtues can be applied and should be applied every day, not just in our culture but in every culture.”
