Summary
Actor and activist Chris Bashinelli is on a mission to learn from cultures that many Westerners know little about. His method? Live among those communities and get to know the people in them. Sometimes that means traveling to the other side of the planet, but in this program Bashinelli visits the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota, home of the Oglala Sioux Tribe, also known as the Oglala Lakota. While there, he embarks on a life-changing two-day buffalo harvest, gets "schooled" by the girl's basketball team, meets a 14-year-old who has devoted her life to suicide prevention, and finds himself shoulder-deep in a cow's backside while trying to better understand employment issues on the reservation. With humor and pathos, Bashinelli discovers stories of hope and learns how the Lakota people have prevailed in the face of hardship and danger.
