Casey Camp-Horinek -- 'Walking the Red Road, the Spiritual Road' at Bioneers

Casey Camp-Horinek, Ponca, shares her humor and good words at this year's Bioneers Conference. "We're walking the Red Road, every day of our life. What does it mean. It means we are a part of the elements."

"Remember who you are, and what you are," says Casey.

"The earth with a shake of her shoulder can shake us free."

"We have to honor the natural laws."

Bioneers:

In this talk, one of the most respected, beloved and impactful longtime activists on behalf of Indigenous rights and women’s leadership as well as a major figure in the “Rights of Nature” movement, delves deeply into how many Indigenous peoples view the human relationship to the natural world and what their ancestral wisdom teaches about how to harmoniously interact with nature’s fundamental components, aka the “elements”—Earth, Air, Water, and Fire. Casey explores how these incredibly sophisticated traditional Indigenous land, water and fire stewardship strategies, many of which are now being “rediscovered” by contemporary managers, have much to teach us as we grapple with the climate crisis.
