The seventeenth American Indian Heritage Month Poster, in recognition of the "Month of the American Indian Heritage". The Choctaw people are passionate about the earth. Their ancesters believed it was good to feel the earth by walking barefoot, and lying on the ground. The Choctaw believe a great spirit created the earth and all the creatures that drink the earth's bounty. The Choctaw people feel man needs to care for the earth, as the earth nourishes man. If earth dies, man dies. American Indian Heritage Month is sponsored by the USDA, Soil Conservation Service, in association with the Ohio Valley RC&D Council and the USDA, Natural Resources Conservation Service. |
