The collection of lectures and publications from the Schumacher Center for a New Economics represents some of the foremost voices on a new economics.
Oren Lyons is a tribal chief of the Onondaga Nation. Although referring to himself as unlettered, he communicates the wisdom Native Americans have passed down over the centuries. As Faithkeeper of the Turtle Clan he is responsible for maintaining the Clan's customs, traditions, values, and history—all of which he tells about in his compelling lecture. He takes us back to the days of the Founding Fathers and shows how influential Native Americans were in guiding them in the formation of a democratic government. Chief Lyons focuses on what is urgently needed today: waking up to the coming global catastrophe represented by global warming; a return to responsible leadership; and giving thought to seven generations ahead in our decision-making.
