Honoring in a Good Way

Honoring in a Good Way is a cultural program that focuses on understanding Native American people and culture for who and what they are, instead of what others have created them to be. This talk will include a discussion of how people can honor their own Native American heritage and / or interest in Native American culture in ways that are respectful and sustainable, a cause that is embraced by Native American people from around the country. This program will also identify misconceptions and falsehoods about Native people and discuss current and historical Native American issues. Adam Danner is an author and Native American cultural speaker from Chillicothe, IL. He is a rare authentic voice for Peoria and Central Illinois and has been an invited speaker on the Akwasasne Reservation in New York, the Grand Traverse Reservation in Michigan, and the Houma Indian community of Dulac, LA. Adam's book Honoring in a Good Way and his Native American cultural presentations have been widely praised and endorsed by Native American people around the country for their accurate presentation of Native American people and culture, while addressing the issues of misconception and cultural exploitation. http://www.adamdanner.com/Homepage.php
