18 months ago we had the privilege of interviewing Chief Richard Quiet Thunder Gilbert, a deep visit about his place in creation, and that of his tribe, the Lenni Lenape people, and about their lessons of right relationship with the Earth.

Edgar Villanueva is back on Spirit In Action with an importantly updated edition of his book, Decolonizing Wealth 2^nd Edition: Indigenous Wisdom to Heal Divides and Restore Balance.

3 guests, 2 writers of fiction touching on the Indian Boarding Schools, William Kent Krueger, author of This Tender Land, and Patricia Reynolds, author of the Keeper of the Souls series, and they are joined by a guest from Alberta, CA, 

Chief Richard Quiet Thunder Gilbert served as tribal chief of the Nanticoke Lenni-Lenape of Bridgeton, NJ, for 13 years. His 86 years on the planet has included 2 books co-authored with Greg Vizzi, The Seventh Generation: Quiet Thunder Speaks (coming soon), and also The Original People.

Our two guests consider whether government can do Spirit work on Earth. Jason Penn Browne, author of William Penn's Legacy, writes about the many ways that Penn's Holy Experiment influenced the development of the USA. Julia Ryberg has lived in Sweden for 30+ years, experiencing a progressive system based on the entwining of church & state.
