  • Fair Game Or Foul?
    Volume 9, Number 4 Fellowship of Catholic Scholars Newsletter September 1986 Fair Game or Foul? The appointment by the Holy See of Fellowship members William May of the Catholic University of America and John Finnis of Oxford University to the International Theological Commission is a well deserved recognition of two scholars whose research talents have been well known for years, not less so than their firm and full commitment to the meaning and integrity of the Catholic faith. They are also obedient sons of the Church, who recognize that the final judge of their work-if it touches the truth of the Catholic faith-is magisterium. These virtues-intelligence, industry, faith, fidelity, humility, obedience, prayerfullness, are necessary compo- nents of anyone who aspires to be a Catholic theologian. One can study the world's experience with religious thought without being a theologian. One can be a scholar in religious matters without being a Christian, certainly without being a Catholic theologian. But the Catholic theologian, is exercising a "genuinely ecclesial authority," which he usually derives from his ca- nonical mission. He is sent by pope and bishops to preach and teach in a way no different than the apostles who were sent by Christ. Even if this canonical mission has not been explicated, theologizing can only be done in communion with the faith, and this means in communion with the magisterium. Who said this? The International Theological Commission (ITHC) in 1976, following five years of meetings over the relationship of Catholic theology to the magisterium. ITHC, with theologians like Yves Congars, Barnabas Ahern, Philip Delhaye participating, published twelve theses which situated Catholic theologians "in medio ecclesiae," subject to the magis- terium.

I am delighted to take this opportunity to announce a recent partnership initiative between William Carey Interna- Gtional University (WCIU) and the North American Institute for Indigenous Th eological Studies (NAIITS) in support of the education of Native North Americans and other indigenous peoples in the area of biblically and theologically framed education and community development. To celebrate this partnership, WCIU and NAIITS co-hosted a Winter Institute, in Feb/March 2014, on Indigenous Th eological Refl ections: Understanding History, Engaging the Future. At the Institute Dr. Terry LeBlanc, Casey Church, and Bryan Brightcloud led presentations and workshops on both the indigenous theologizing process and expressions. As you may agree with me after viewing some of the videos of the Institute included in this issue, NAIITS leaders, representing their community of believers, have obviously thought and ploughed deep in contextual theology and presented a lot of thought-provoking stories and refl ections to us.

Black Elk's Legacy By Mark Thiel All photographs are courtesy of Marquette University and from its Bureau of Catholic Indian ehaka Sapa or Black Elk Missions Records, unless noted otherwise. H(1863-1950) lived one of the most controversial lives of the 20th century. To most Americans, he is best-known from Black Elk Speaks: Being the Life Story of a Holy Man of the Oglala Sioux, as told through John G. Neihardt (Neihardt, 1979). It chronicles his life as a warrior, wild-west show dancer, and medicine man (photo right) and, although called his life story, the book ends abruptly in 1890 at the Wounded Knee massacre on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, where Black Elk as a 27-year old was wounded. Black Elk dressed as a distinguished elder, probably at the Duhamel's Sioux Indian Pageant, Black Hills, South Dakota, W. Ben Hunt, photographer, ca . 1939. This image is accessible online in the Marquette University Digital Collections. In 1929, Black Elk and the Duhamel family organized a pageant near the developing Mount Rushmore Monument. The pageant included short renditions of Lakota ceremonies and dances narrated by Black Elk to educate tourists about Lakota heritage. It is believed that Black Elk's evolving narration provided the basis for his last collaborative book, The Sacred Pipe: Black Elk's Account of the Seven Rites of the Oglala Sioux, for which he was interviewed in 1947 and 1948.

  • TITLE PAGE Neihardt's Ghost Dance: the Literary Creation of Black Elk
    TITLE PAGE Neihardt’s Ghost Dance: The literary creation of Black Elk and Lakota Religion by Robert DeBarba M.A. (Hood College) 2019 THESIS / CAPSTONE Submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in HUMANITIES in the GRADUATE SCHOOL of HOOD COLLEGE May 2019 Accepted: ______________________ ______________________ Dr. Amy Gottfried Dr. Corey Campion Committee Member Program Director ______________________ ______________________ Dr. Corey Campion Dr. April Boulton Committee Member Dean of the Graduate School ______________________ Dr. Jay Harrison Capstone Advisor i STATEMENT OF USE AND COPYRIGHT WAIVER “I do authorize Hood College to lend this Thesis (Capstone), or reproductions of it, in total or in part, at the request of other institutions or individuals for the purpose of scholarly research.” ii ABSTRACT Native American ceremonies are an integral part of understanding indigenous culture. In the early 1900’s, John Neihardt attempted to better understand the Lakota culture by interviewing Black Elk about the Ghost Dance of 1890. Originally, Neihardt’s intention was to use the information he gathered as a backdrop to his impending novel. Instead, in 1930, he wrote Black Elk Speaks, which was based on the interview of Black Elk on Lakota Culture. Originally, the book was touted as a lens into authentic Native American religion; information that was traditionally internal was made available to outsiders. Throughout decades the book has been accepted as a valuable primary source of indigenous culture. The Lakota Ghost Dance filled a religious void in Lakota culture that resulted from generations of oppression of tribal members by Anglo Americans.

Dakota Images Seen through the camera viewfinders of thousands of visitors to Mount Rushmore, Benjamin Black Elk, dress- ed in traditional Sioux clothing, seemed to epitomize the popular image of the Sioux Indian. Those few visitors who also paused to talk with the man known as the "Fifth Face of Mount Rushmore" found an articulate spokesman working for the preservation of his heritage. Benjamin Black Elk was born in 1899 at Manderson on the Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota. One of sever- al in a line to carry the family name, he was the son of Black Elk, the Oglala medicine man who was a cousin of Crazy Horse and fought with him at the Battle of the Lit- tle Bighorn. After attending Carlisle Indian School in Pennsylvania for a short time, Ben Black Elk returned to Manderson. He served as an interpreter when, in the early 1930s, John G. Neihardt conducted the interviews with his father that culminated in the book Black Elk Speaks. He later became a successful rancher in the area, winning awards for both crops and livestock. In the last two decades of his life, Ben Black Elk became one of the most photographed men of all time. In the 1950s, he began twenty years of posing for summer tourists at Mount Rushmore, having his picture taken as often as five thousand times in one day. In 1962, he became the first person to appear on the initial live televi- sion broadcast transmitted from the United States to Eu- rope via the Telstar satellite.
