Spokes to the Wheel: a Glimpse into the Indigenous Mind Christopher "Kaskae" Wright

Spokes is a primer for understanding Native cultures. It is not intended to show how everybody thinks - these are not cookie-cutter cultures. It is an insight as to what priorities may be and how they would effect decisions - both by the individual and the group. It was originally intended for small business owners in order for them to make better business presentations. Under advice of the many Native people that have pre-read this, the proposed audience has widened. These are vibrant and complex cultures and no book could be a 'one size fits all' but in my decades of interaction in a variety of world settings, I have found that finding the similarities between people is often a more successful gambit than focusing on differences. That knowledge, applied to some basic protocol will aid in a positive experience among the worlds oldest cultures. Yes, they are different and often those differences are wondrous.
