Lakota country as a beautiful place

[Lindberg:]: Is it a good place to live now?
[Two Dogs:]: In a sense that we still have our culture, and our beliefs, and our traditions.
[Lindberg:]: Is it a beautiful place? [Two Dogs: ] I think it is.
[Lindberg:]: What’s nice—what’s beautiful about it—so people can understand.
[Two Dogs:]: Well, all of creation, you know. The trees, the animals, you know, the birds, the plants that are there.
[Lindberg:]: What we think of as nature?
[Two Dogs:]: Yes, what you think of as nature.
[Lindberg:]: And is that the best place you know of to live, the most beautiful place?
[Two Dogs:]: No, I’d rather live in the Black Hills.
[Lindberg:]: I see, which is a traditional home.
[Two Dogs:]: Yes, and it’s even our home by treaty.
