From Warrior To Teacher

Medicine Crow’s public persona grew increasingly educational as he aged.

He spoke to children, students, scholars, tourists, veterans, tribal audiences, religious groups, and political leaders.

He taught Crow studies and participated in institutions devoted to Native education.

He became a frequent presence at historical events connected to the Little Bighorn.

Teaching suited him because he understood history as a relationship between generations.

He had received stories from elders.

His responsibility was to pass them forward.
