    [ texte ; photo (amérindien ramassant un crane de bison ?) ]

    texte :

    “I wonder if the ground has anything to say ?
    I wonder if the ground is listening to what is said ?
    I wonder of the ground would come alive to what is on it ?

    Through i hear what the ground says :
    … the Great Spirit placed me here”

    This poster is from a photograph entitled “Fire Carrier Bringing the Skull” by E.S. Curtis and originally published in his book, “The North American Indian”.
    The text is adapted from a speech by Young Chief, a Cayuse leader, who spoke in opposition to the Point Elliot Treaty in 1855. It was published in “Touch the Earth” by Teri McLuhan, published by Outerbridge & Dienstfrey.
    This is one of a series of posters available reprinted on heavy paper in color. Write Akwesasne Notes, Mohawk Nation, via Reeseveltown, N.Y. 13683 to order reprints.
