The Lost People: Highlights From Our Conversation with Author and Talk Show Host Thom Hartmann
The Loss of Indigenous Culture and the Roots of “Wetiko”
“We need to replace the Four E’s – extraction, exploitation, extortion and extinction -- with the Four C’s, cooperation, collaboration, cultivation and community.”
-- Swami Beyondananda
The lost people.
What an intriguing title. Who are those “lost people”? Are they an ancient people whose ways and history are lost to us? Or are they the “hungry ghosts” in our own society, unhinged from meaning and purpose, who have acquiesced to, and perpetuate the “taker” culture?
According to award-winning talk show host and prolific author Thom Hartmann, the answer to both questions is “yes.” There is a profound and significant connection between the “lost” ways of our indigenous ancestors, and the many “lost souls” who inhabit modern industrial society.
We’re sure you’ll want to watch the full conversation (see below) but in this highlight video taken from the longer conversation, you’ll learn how the trauma of losing indigenous identity has led to the extractor, exploiter, taker culture we see today – what the Native People call “Wetiko,” defined as “cannibalism.” You’ll discover what Thom learned from Native American and Aboriginal elders, and discover what indigenous societies learned in 10,000 years of “trial and error.” You’ll learn what these cultures had that we have lost – and must rediscover and cultivate if we are to survive and thrive in these perilous times
