Darell Marcus Kills In Sight - Wambli Ohitika-Brave Eagle. Darell is a last-generation fluent Lakota speaker from Spring Creek, Rosebud Sioux-Sicangu tribe, Rosebud Reservation, South Dakota. A direct family descendant of the Crazy Horse family.-Ta'sunka Witko Tiospaye. His generational family stories of Lakota traditional culture are written through prose with an antidotal message of hope, healing, and preservation.

Lakota traditional cultural and spiritual values reflect the natural world, the importance of family, and having courage, strength, and survival for the generations to come. A message for all ages in a modern time. Remember who held you together when you were convinced you'd fall apart? Those are your people.

My legacy of reflection is my life's journey. Language is important. When it is gone, then the artworks and words of life are only memorized by you. I am the grandson of Naca-Chiefs & Warriors-and Crazy Horse. It's all I have needed to live this Far. Hecatu yelo-in good prayers. DM
