Description

In Joe Marshall, we found that person, but the happy surprise was that we also found a poet, a storyteller, and an educator who led us through challenging terrain with great patience and wisdom.”
Michael Wright, executive in charge of production, “Into The West” Native American lineage holders have long been cautious about sharing their spiritual truths because the essence of this wisdom has been so often misunderstood.
In “Walking with Grandfather,” authentic Lakota lineage holder and award-winning storyteller Joseph M.

With him, you will gain access to the timeless teachings that until now remained largely unheard outside the culture of the Lakota people.
