Meet Crazy Horse Family Elder, Floyd Clown Sr., & Author William Matson, as they discuss and sign their book: Crazy Horse - The Lakota Warrior's Life and Legacy based on the Family's oral history.
|
|
Where: Tupper Lightfoot Memorial Library 164 S. Main Street Brundidge, AL 36010 When: Jan. 21st at 6pm-8pm The Edward Clown family, nearest living relatives to the Lakota war leader, presents the family tales and memories told to them about their famous grandfather. In many ways the oral history differs from what has become the standard and widely accepted biography of Crazy Horse. The family clarifies the inaccuracies and shares their story about the past, including what it means to them to be Lakota, the family genealogy, the life of Crazy Horse and his motivations, his death, and why they chose to keep quiet with their knowledge for so long before finally deciding to tell the truth as they know it.

Watch the Video--Milo Ventimiglia on the Power of Libraries
MILO VENTIMIGLIA: LIBRARIES ARE POWERFUL
By admin on August 12, 2019
Actor, director, and producer Milo Ventimiglia, best known for his roles on television dramas "This is Us" and "Gilmore Girls," is starring in the Fox 2000 feature film “The Art of Racing in the Rain,” an adaptation of the international best-selling novel by Garth Stein.
And in a new video message recorded for the American Library Association, he highlights the power of libraries saying, "Stories bring people together, and that's why libraries are so powerful. They make sure everyone can access books, movies, and other media and give communities a place to connect."
