Indigenous peoples have lived intimately rooted in regenerative circles of life. Today's industrialized societies disconnect us from natural systems critical for survival. Walking backwards into the future is about slowing down and listening. This spoken word legacy connects past, present, and future for living in concert with the land. Larry Littlebird shares that for most Native people, the action has always been "to simplify your life so your spirit can teach you how to live".
