Hopi Messenger - Thomas Banyacya, Sr. (1909-1999)
Hopi elder Thomas Banyacya (1909-1999) was selected as spokesman for traditional leaders in 1948, after atom bombs triggered Hopi awareness that the prophecized "gourd full of ashes" had finally appeared. We worked with Thomas from 1977 through 1999 and were fortunate to film him at Chaco Canyon, in Washington D.C. and at sacred migration sites around the Four Corners area. His humor, good spirit and wisdom will long be remembered. In June 2011, Santa Clara elder José Lucero and Onondaga Chief Oren Lyons organized a memorial gathering to celebrate Thomas at the foot of Navajo Mountains and they asked us to put together a short film remembrance of the Hopi Messenger. This film is the result, published here for the first time in September 2017, with the permission of Thomas's family. Enjoy. P.S.
