An Island of Vision Ted Williams

Reflections on how the pandemics, George Floyd's murder, and 10,000 years of history are culminating in the current time of rapid transition.

I reflect on the state of the world, the murder of George Floyd, complex systems, indigenous worldviews, spirituality, and dinosaurs! two of the indigenous scholars I mention are Leroy Little Bear and Gregory Cajete. A good introduction to Leroy's work is available at. https://youtu.be/gJSJ28eEUjI . Gregory Cajete Wrote a book titled "Native Science" which you can find easily online and here is a good introduction to his work – https://youtu.be/nFeNIOgIbzw.
