To the Lakota Sioux, the word Wakanisha roughly translates as children, but has a far deeper meaning. Wakanisha are their sacred vessels of culture, spirituality and most importantly, love. These first inhabitants of America strived for harmony in all things, with the land of rolling plains they freely roamed, and within their tribes, families, and hearts. Follow three generations of these remarkable people as their daily lives paint a beautiful and bittersweet picture, the threads of their canvas interwoven with our country's troublingly real history.
