In at least partial answer to the question that Lyn Dearborn and I were
asking in our earlier remarks, here is a bit of text from the home page
cited above that indicates the names of some of the people involved in
the event. Perhaps these people are known to some of you out there:
The Sunbow 5 Walk is a response to a vision of traditional Native
Elders of North America (including Grandfather Commanda; Thomas
Banyacya and Martin Gashweseoma of the Hopi; Jose Lucero of the
Santa Clara Pueblo: Ernest Benedict of the Mohawk; and Frank James,
Sachem, Wampanoag Nation. One of their goals is to bring together
people of all races, whose concern for healing the Earth, now and for
future generations, far surpasses any racial or religious divisions.
The Sunbow 5 Walk is both a gesture of hope and a deed of unity.
I would still like to know more about this event and why we have not
heard of it earlier, but I am prepared to support it and its aims after
learning whatever we can discover about it together.
