Fifteen elders-giants in the field of human population and development-share their vision of a more just, peaceful and sustainable world.

In Joe Marshall, we found that person, but the happy surprise was that we also found a poet, a storyteller, and an educator who led us through challenging terrain with great patience and wisdom." ?Michael Wright, executive in charge of production, Into The West Native American lineage holders have long been cautious about sharing their spiritual truths because the essence of this wisdom has been so often misunderstood. In Walking with Grandfather, authentic Lakota lineage holder and award-winning storyteller Joseph M.

"The Shadow Man"?how to honor the sacred warrior in all of us ? "The Wisdom Within"?the passage of truly becoming an elder ? Plus many more stories.…
