Remaining True
Even with the enormous amount of success he has experienced, John Two-Hawks remains
simple of heart, kind, gentle and humble, and he has always been true to his Lakota ethnic
and cultural heritage. From his earliest years, a strong, tenacious sense of Lakota identity

He is a man of honor, who fiercely guards his solitude and privacy, and yet has offered himself
freely to millions around the world as a voice for peace, healing and justice. John Two-Hawks
is gracious and eloquent, and yet remains a fiery advocate for Indigenous human and civil rights.
