Description: These poets are bound by a common attitude as well as a common heritage. All four are Sioux and all four identify themselves as "Skins," as in "Redskins." In their poems, they grapple with their heritage, wrestling with what it means to be a Sioux and a Skin today. It's a fight to the finish.
