If you peel back the layers of American history, you will find roots in Native America.  Many of our foods, tools, medicines, and governmental structures are derived from Ancient America. Join Reuben Fast Horse as he shares his knowledge of the contributions of the people of the First Nations.

Reuben Fast Horse, born on the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation, is a traditional Lakota singer, dancer, flutist, drummer, craftsman, storyteller and educator. He has been certified by the Lakota and the North Dakota State Board of Education as an Eminent Scholar, and has taught Lakota culture at Standing Rock Elementary and Grant School in Fort Yates, N.D.  He has also toured the United States, performing and speaking at festivals, colleges, high schools and elementary schools.
