The Cry of the Earth conference at the United Nations was presented by Crescentera. It was sponsored by the Mission of Mexico, the Mission of the United States and the United Nations Centre for Human Rights.
These videos are offered with respect, and in honor of the Elders that participated in the Cry of the Earth conference, November 1993. Many of these Elders have crossed over, but their legacy remains. May their words continue to inspire through this unedited account. It is a fulfillment of a promise made to spread their message as widely as possible.

Wow.... Scott Momaday beautifully articulates the thoughts and beliefs of indigenous peoples..🤓 Education coupled with ancestral teachings will be the key in manifesting what needs to be done in saving our planet. This is how we will speak (in a way "they" understand) the "cry of Mother Earth". Yee!

The great sacred places of the Earth, the small sacred places of the Earth, neither existing without the other. To hear or to read Momaday is to be on the edge of weeping before the sacred words in sacred life.
