I know, I know - this was last weeks theme... but wild horses do fly. If you've ever been astride a horse soaring over jumps and streams and galloping over the earth, you know what it is to fly.
Ever since I heard his album "Graffiti Man", I've been a fan of John Trudell - and an admirer of his activist work. This video, with the beautiful voice of Anne Humphreys singing, is a favorite of mine. The flight of insects, the flight of birds, the flight for survival of wild things , the flight of Native Americans to avoid extermination. When fight is certain death, only flight remains.

What an amazing picture.
ReplyDeleteSo are you gonna paint Bogo? And that's a stunning video!
ReplyDeleteOur minds must be in sync. I posted a version of Jim Pepper's "Witchi Tai To" today (not for Theme Thursday, though; I have other candidates for that).
Thank you Diva -
ReplyDeleteAnd Roy, I must confess. I watched your posted video and it reminded me of how much I love John Trudell's work. I planned on coming back to your post to say so - but you got ahead of me!
