This Thursday 11/7/19 at 7:00 P.M. Dr. Damian Costello will give a free lecture on Nicholas Black Elk at St. Augustine's Church, Barre Street, Montpelier. Few Native American elders have achieved the global iconic status of Black Elk. He was many things: a cousin of Crazy Horse, a leader in the Ghost Dance, the subject of the spiritual classic Black Elk Speaks, and now candidate for sainthood in the Catholic Church. The complete portrait of Black Elk's vision is unexpected and striking: a message of hope that renewed the traditional Lakota understanding of the Spirit World's power to make live in a collapsing world. Please join us for this talk. Refreshments will be served.
