Title: Standing In The Light/ Severt Young Bear
Review: This is an exceptionally honest book written by Severt Young Bear and R. D. Theisz documenting Severt's life on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, His lineage and background with lovely pictures of relatives and friends. One senses a note of sadness yet pride in his heritage and all of the various occupations and offices he held. Even his involvement with AIM and the second "Reign of Terror" during the 70's. Of all the books I have read and own concerning life on Pine Ridge and the Lakota this one gave me insight as to the inner workings of tribal government, Native American family life and culture and the hope for a better future for his people. I really could not put it down.
