Celebrating American Indian History, Spirituality, and Culture

 

Spirit Talk News celebrates American Indian history, spirituality, and  culture through--

A newsletter which is published six times each year. This small newsletter--put together by volunteers--carries 8-12 pages of articles dealing with many aspects of Indian history and culture. Samples of some recent newsletters can be seen by clicking on Recent Newsletters. The newsletter is a printed publication and is distributed by mail to subscribers. The subscription cost is $12 per year.

Books: Spirit Talk News currently distributes 14 books about American Indians. Some of these books are from the Winter Count series which provides a year-by-year chronology of events related to Indian people and Indian nations. The books which we currently distribute can be seen by clicking Books.

Winter Count: Spirit Talk News maintains a Winter Count--a year-by-year chronology--of Indian events in the United States and Canada. Using this Winter Count and our material on Indian cultures, we can create customized Indian books for a state, a region, or a tribe. If you would like a book customized for your tribe or area, please contact us.
