I was standing on the highest mountain of them all, and round about beneath me was the whole hoop of the world. And while I stood there I saw more than I can tell and I understood more than I saw; for I was seeing in a sacred manner the shapes of all things in the spirit, and the shape of all shapes as they must live together like one being. And I saw that the sacred hoop of my people was one of many hoops that made one circle, wide as daylight and as starlight, and in the center grew one mighty flowering tree to shelter all children of one mother and one father. And I saw that it was holy.

About Us
- Spirit People Intertribal
- Florida
- We are the voices of our ancestors, Cherokee, Mohawk, Apache, Seminole, Creek, Choctaw, Lakota, Oneida, Seneca, and more. We are their prayers made real in the present. We are the seventh generation to someone who dreamt of our existence. We are the ones who refuse to forget our relatives who fought and died for what belonged to them, for what belongs to us. We are the faces of those who walked the Trail of Tears, The Long Walk, and all other forced removals. We are the people, and we are still here.
