The group recently completed its first music video, TRAILS OF TEARS, shot on-location in Magdelena, New Mexico with Nammy nominated film-maker/editor, Chris Crosby, musicseenPROductions and Jason Cochran, Skysirrico Productions.

This is their music video “Trail of Tears”. Notice the guy who goes by the name “Spirit Buffalo” walking around with the breast plate and bone choker necklace on with the bow and arrow in his hand? This video depicting the Trail of Tears is a disgrace and an embarrassment to those of us that actually do have ancestors that Walked to Trail of Tears. In the entire sixteen minute I didn’t see much at all that accurately depicts the Trail of Tears. Our Cherokee ancestors didn’t walk around carrying powwow drums and chicken feather fans during this time, nor did they sage themselves. And from what I know, the other Tribes in the Southeast that were removed West didn't either.

Windwalker's last name is Dorn.
November 27, 2013 12:00 AM
SOMERSET — Windwalker Dorn travels all over the country with her group "Wind Spirit Drum" to share cultural awareness and education of the Native American culture.
But last Thursday, she made a special visit to the North Elementary School where she did a presentation to the kindergarten class her granddaughter is in and at an assembly for more students.
Students in the kindergarten class of Tracy Rayray sang songs, told stories, played instruments and learned a lot about the Native American culture from Ms. Dorn last Thursday.
"My aim is for education about Native American history and it being so non segregated," Ms. Dorn said. "My goal really is to teach the children how to work together and be together in every aspect and get them ready for life."
Ms. Dorn's granddaughter, Avarie Tupper, is a student in the kindergarten class.
Ms. Dorn is part Mic Mac, Cherokee and Lanape, which were the first tribes in North America that were known as "the keepers of the new dawn" and the first to encounter the Europeans. She told the students that her regalia is made of deer and elk.
Ms. Dorn lives and performs in California and also lives in New Mexico. She has worked with the handicapped, children, veterans and the American Cancer Society.
Ms. Dorn was visiting her daughter, Rebecca Litchfield, and her daughter Avarie, and canceled some concerts so that she could do the presentation at the North Elementary School. Ms. Litchfield helped her mother with the presentation.

They seem to be focusing mostly on their music now. Their Wind Spirit website is down and the Blue Sky charity website is down. She has a healing Facebook page, but it has not been posted on since August 2012.
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Windwalker-Healing-Sessions-and-Workshops/119980288126857
Where to begin? These videos left me feeling a little . . . not sure what's the right word. I had no idea Wind Spirit Drum was so iffy.
Windwalker is Cherokee, Lenape, Mi'kmaq, Oglala Lakota. Spirit Buffalo is Cherokee and Mi'kmaq. They bill their music as Eastern Woodland. Why are they dressed like they're Plains or Southwest Indians? Buckskin, turquoise, a bone breast plate, Navajo blankets?
Yes, Windwalker is talented. I don't speak Cherokee, so I can't say how accurate her use of the language is.
Why they chose New Mexico for the location for the Trail of Tears video defies logic. It loses all credibility. They used a long-stemmed white rose as a Cherokee Rose. The real thing probably wasn't avalable in New Mexico. If they'd filmed their video where the Trail of Tears actually took place, they'd have had an abundance of Cherokee Roses. They grow wild all over the southeast from North Carolina/Georgia all the way to Oklahoma. We even have them here in Texas.
Spirit Buffalo is a sundancer and sundance chief. He's the Lenape's 2nd Chief. A little confusing . . . He's a Cherokee/Mi'kmaq who is a sundancing chief of the Lenape?
Windwalker is a Native American healer and a licensed massage therapist.

hahahahaaha spirit buffalo and windwalker....i been making fun of them over last 3 years
me and my friends sing their stupid hey lopa loma song because its so annoying and cheesy....and that video is good for a laugh
a few inquiries to james swan, joanne spotted bear ect.....i found out blue sky charities never donated a single cent to the oglala tribe, and all their fundraising is for "pine ridge" (why oh why is it ALWAYS pine ridge?)
their regalia is dumb looking and not even close to tribe specific
and spirit buffalo claims to be a lenape sundance chief
windwalker claims to be "turkey clan mother" of the mic maq....whatever that means....she sure wears alot of bronzer
pisses me off that people actually buy their music and think its authentic..........if i want to hear ndn music gimmie some joe tahonnie jr or some cozad or even some yellowbird
avoid at all costs

I believe they are Edward and Laura Dorn, don't know yet what Laura's birth surname is. At one time they lived in Datil, New Mexico - that location helped me connect some dots, along with piecing together clues on Facebook and elsewhere. Laura's prior husband was Jameson Litchfield.
Windwalker Dorn is walking on air these days. And she has great tidings of joy for Datil and environs.

In a 2001 brief news bit she was Laura Windwalker Dorn, from Lisbon Ohio.
Dorn in an interview (as Windwalker) for someone's 2003 thesis said her family denied NDN heritage and she did not find out she was NDN til later in life. The author also notes that Dorn's hair is noticeably dyed a darker color. http://shelf1.library.cmu.edu/HSS/a986155/a986155.pdf (http://shelf1.library.cmu.edu/HSS/a986155/a986155.pdf)
She is said to have been somehow involved with the United Eastern Lenape Nation in the past.
She claims she is a third generation medicine woman, I think through her mother, and maternal grand mother.
In her stepfather's 2010 obit she is Laura Beth Dorn. http://www.hathawayfunerals.com/obits/obituaries.php/obitID/548603 (http://www.hathawayfunerals.com/obits/obituaries.php/obitID/548603) Her mother's birth name Bertha B. McCann. If I've pieced this all together correctly, not seeing any recent NDN heritage.
She says she is a licensed massage therapist, that should be verified before paying her for a massage.
Her husband Edoul Spirit Buffalo, who I believe is Edward Dorn, says his NDN heritage is through his mother, of Maine. I can see the Maine connection, but not NDN.

Osiyo! Just wanted to introduce myself. A great friend of mine, Windwalker Dorn, who is a board member of our nonprofit charity, asked me to introduce myself. She met Patrick Doyle last weekend in Taos during filming of a music video, and a subsequent appearance on your radio program. She was so excited to meet the great people at your station! Our charity, Blue Sky Charities Group, provides humanitarian aid, and improved educational opportunities for Native American children. Please let me know if you have a specific group of children that need clothes, toys....We have been helping the children in New Mexico (Socorro), and Pineridge (S.D.). Bless you! Carl Patton

I'm curious if she asked for anyone's legal names, seems like that would be important for her work. But maybe I'm wrong, maybe for informants this is fine?
Don't know anything else about the thesis, found it when looking for info on Windwalker, and just skimmed through quick for that info.

I started reading her thesis and it's obvious she was totally clueless. I'm too tired tonight I'll read some more tomorrow. I also looked up Laura windwalker Dorn's great grandparents on her mother's fathers side, they are from Ireland and England.

This was an undergraduate student's senior thesis, not from a master's program. Still, the most basic academic research says you need signed releases from those you interview, and she'd have the legal names of all involved.
The student, Christine Strellec, actually dissects groups like the UELN pretty well, shows them to be blustery and unconcerned with much of anything besides people with distant claims or outright pretenders trying desperately to convince themselves. UELN leaders demanded everyone address them as "honored chiefs" and constantly ranted about "lack of respect." ::) That must get tedious real quick...
Dorn actually said to Strellec over the phone prior to meeting that she feared how obvious it was she did not appear Native. Strellec wrote for several pages how defensive all these pretenders were about their appearance.

first of all i would love to punch her in the mouth for her school appearance.....maybe that sounds extreme but i swear im TIRED of all these non-ndn twinkies teaching people pseudo-ndn misinformation under the guise of being ndn.......ive had it up to here....ENOUGH!!!
2nd.....i'll let earthw correct me if i am wrong as i am not lakota.....but it looks like windwalker claimed she didnt know of here indian heritage and found out later in life she was mic maq and cherokee and lenape,.....hmmmmm......how is she third generation ANYTHING?....yet on this old bio she claims she learned it from her oglala grandmother?????...I CALL BULLSHIT ON HER!!!!
lets break this down a little more
a) is there such thing as a medicine woman in lakota tribes? women practicing medicine are almost unheard of in southern tribes
b) is the "gift" passed on lineal? is it hereditary? as far as i know the only way to learn is years of study and apprenticeship
c) why would the gift be passed to her in the first place? or anyone else if they are not lakota or maybe if they are a thinblood they are not CULTURALLY lakota nor identify as lakota?
d) what the hell does tea leaf reading have to do with lakota medicine?
e) this bio claims she is passing down her matrilineal healing down to her daughter......basically filling her daughter's head with new age mumbo jumbo which i have no problem with.......but quit claiming it as ndn practices
third.....lets look at her lenape claims
a) she claims to be turkey clan chief.......do the lenape have a turkey clan? and can a woman be a chief?
b) he husband....he claims he is a lenape sundance chief........BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA when did the delaware start sundancing anyways?
fourth......her husband claims many educational accomplishments and to be a vietnam vet. all that is commendable.....but if they lied so much about their backgrounds how do we know this is even true? im not saying its not.......but we all seen this before.......i'll leave it at that
and in all his pics in videos why does he run around with just a plains style breastplate if he is lenape? someone tell that guy to put a shirt on already.....he doesnt look cool he looks stupid
and is "drumkeeper" really a title?
you guys GOTTA check out her "hey lopa" video on youtube........she is singing her made up traditional lenape rowing song, showin off her dyed hair and spray tan and navajo jewlery while rowing a canoe down a new mexico river complete with tipis and buffalo shots and then some girls come out and get knee deep in the water in cherokee style dresses and fan the water then they end with a plains style LULU.....its so dumb its entertaining............they kicked me off comments section and banned me from their fb page though lol......im sure you can guess why
on another video she says she didnt walk 50 feet into taos pueblo and was invited to look at drums and they were allowed to play them.....BWAHAHAHAHAHA i am taos pueblo.......she got treated like any other white tourist and she talked as if it legitimized her or something....and the drum shop is one of the first things you see when you walk towards the plaza from parking area
im getting more and more bitter against twinkies

Or do I have to sleep in a tepee deep in the snow?" "Do I have to shoot the arrows in the air?" Sad that they use their daughter this way, they raise her with this, use her in videos. Pisses me off to see Laura / Windwalker complain about being "segregated". Twice in this video she does hand gestures indicating paint around the eyes and a feather behind the head.

let see what is wrong with this woman story EVERYTHING!
Women do not wear war bonnets or eagle feathers
women only wear Eagle plumes
We have Medicine women but only after they has the age of 55 or older
or as they say after they start menopause.
We would like to know who was this family that suppose to have taught her
there is no tea reading in our culture.
This women is a fraud

I took the time to read Strellec's thesis and I apologize for my previous comments. However, I do have issues with some of her terminology for these people. Like how she refers to them as Native Americans throughout her thesis when after just a couple of interviews it's blatantly obvious that these people are frauds with a capital F. And even though she never says so or emphatically comes to that conclusion in her thesis I believe she should have. It would have been a much better read.

and since we are picking our indian names from movies......can i call myself stands with a fist? or should i just call myself HORSE?

What a joke, her video had me laughing out loud. Her voice was bad the lyrics pretty shallow and trying to claim a defense of not looking American Indian and the "segregation" she feels. But then all she does is stereotype herself, by walking around with feathers in her hair and a buckskin outfit, and her dyed black hair and bronzer. What a joke! Nothing authentic about these two...
-
why do white people believe that this is actually NDN music? NOT A SINGLE NDN would listen to this........white people, if you are interested in NDN music put down that cd by some flutemaker pseudo-superspiritual lyricist with "deep" lyrics and pick up a cd by joe tojonnie jr, cozad, southern style, northern cree, yellowbird, pawnee spotted horse, omaha white tail, black eagle, porcupine singers, rocky boy ect ect ect
thats what we listen to to get in our NDN mood when we aint listening to dance music, iron maiden or redbone (or country for all you rezzies)
as far as "deep".....most of our fun round dance songs have lyrics about love, love lost, snaggin, frybread ect ect ect
i think i speak for MOST of us when i say we would not listen to that "deep" crap
i think the most political indian related song i could stomach is the BIA song
we dont sit around crosslegged on a mesa playin the flute and being all spiritual living as one with earth.........dont get me wrong we RESPECT the earth and our ancestors and any religious or borderline religious songs are tribe specific with no message for everyone

SOMERSET — Windwalker Dorn travels all over the country with her group "Wind Spirit Drum" to share cultural awareness and education of the Native American culture.
But last Thursday, she made a special visit to the North Elementary School where she did a presentation to the kindergarten class her granddaughter is in and at an assembly for more students.

I'm with you on that one Milehighsalute, there's alot more poor rez's in every state, despite what non-Indians think about the success of Indian gaming. There's alot of poor urban Indian populations also. I know some white groups here who do a clothing drive every year and drive it some church in South Dakota, i'm sure they got more size Small 1990's t-shirts then they need right about now.
Who does the checks benefit in Pine Ridge anyway, since that's not a valid address? They going to some corrupt medicine man or who?

Laura, aka Windwalker, has been active in New England over the summer. There are pictures on her personal facebook page with actual ndns as well as pretendians.
She is selling 'healings' and is grooming her granddaughter for appropriation. I am attaching photos clearly showing this. It's bad enough that Laura is exploiting people, grooming a toddler for this is inexcusable.

Their fb page lies about a nomination in the 2015 grammy for "Best Regional Roots Album" for the Windwalker and MCW CD. They claim they are nominated, but they aren't listed here.

wanna know what i hate the most about this broad? its because when i even THINK of that stupid hey lopa loma song i cant get it to leave my head..........drives me nuts.......the first 100x was laughable but now i wanna put a bullet in my brain.....do yourself a favor and do not watch the hey lopa loma video

anyone know if the cherokee is on point? well it dont matter.......there are cherokee versions of amazing grace all over the net.......im sure she practiced along with them

An antidote for the Lopa Loma song is to substitute the equally obnoxious Oompa Loompa song from the original Willy Wonka movie. The music is very similar and will help diffuse the impact of the earworm.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZhs7w-FzeI (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZhs7w-FzeI)
So now every time you think of the Lopa Loma song you can simply insert the Oompa Loompa song instead. They are equally idiotic so why the Hell not? Both pieces of music are based on fantasy so the switch should be easy. Plus, the Oompa song also involves a river (of chocolate). Just think of a little person with green hair paddling down a chocolate river singing the Lopa Loma song and then all will fall in place in the universe of absurdity.
Well, OK, I must admit I am wrong here. The Oompa Loompa song is vastly superior and I do not mean to insult it by comparison.
Ed Dorn and I have some mutual friends. I don't know Ed personally but I am familiar with his former career as an artist with the late, great Michael Roden (who I did know). In watching these Youtubes I can't help but wonder what has made Ed appear so sad and beaten down. He doesn't exactly exude a feeling of joy and celebration of life in his performances before the camera. He seems to be broken and defeated. I feel bad for him.
But. My sympathy is scoped. Ed has allowed himself to be part of a charade. He'll have to suffer the consequences for doing so. A tragic legacy for such a talented artist. He is probably too deep into it to back out now. Poor schnook.

Here is Laura: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KG95-GSL , born Laura B Hall (unless Hall is another married surname). She had a married surname of Litchfield, now of Dorn. I believe her middle name is Beth. She was born in 1962. I've not yet figured out who her parents are.
Her husband Edoal Spirit Buffalo / Edward Harvey Dorn: http://mugshots.com/US-Counties/Florida/Hillsborough-County-FL/Edward-Harvey-Dorn.57840096.html
Her step father was Raymond Hall, Laura is listed in his obituary as his step daughter, interesting that a "step son precedes" Raymond Hall in death, his name is Robert F.E. Burnett...
If anyone wants to help Sam and I fry this woman before the Grammy is awarded out... email me at kdenning@cox.net

I found a record on the Dorn's daughter's birth, I took out the daughter's information and will say she was born in Ohio
Father Edward Harvey Dorn
Born in: Ohio
Mother Laura Beth Dorn
Maiden Name: Hall
Born in: Massachusetts
In this record Laura states her maiden name is HALL, but in Raymond Hall's obituary she is listed as a step daughter. Laura was about 6 years old when her mother married Raymond Hamilton Hall.
Laura has tried to hide her true maiden name, but, things can and will be dug out.

i feel bad for her daughter........she is in the same boat as brando skyhorse.....it isnt her fault

Don't you folks have something constructive to do? I have not met Windwalker, but people close to me know her. The petty contrivances listed on this thread are in DIRECT CONTRAST with the "truth" of the person, who I understand to have been very kind and generous to some that I care about. As a person who has committed herself to healing work, Windwalker's life paints a rich picture.
You can slander or disparage if that's really your thing, but take a look in the mirror -just for a second.

Guy, Laura may have been kind and generous to someone you know and care about. However, she is not being kind and generous to
the Native Americans whose culture and ethnicity she is appropriating. We have presented _facts_ which show beyond a shadow of a
doubt she is not Native American and, therefore, has no right to present herself as such. No one is slandering anyone here. These are
hard, cold facts. I know it's a bitter pill to swallow when you discover you have been deceived by someone you loved and trusted. Been
there. Done that. The facts speak for themselves.
-
Wow, it always amazes me how some people can simply disregard TRUTH because the person is "nice" or "warm" or whatever. And then said person gets really really angry with those that have been harmed by people like that. Sorry Guy, but your fantasy about how Indigenous people are supposed to act is not based in reality.
I know a woman who was teaching "Medicine Wheel" stuff and everyone kept saying how "nice" and "sweet" she was. But I also know the harm she did to people. Unintended harm is still harm.

so cultural fraud is the "truth"?
listen.....we aint the bad guys........we arent raising money and asking for donatioons for pine ridge.....(i called tribal offices myself, they never heard of windwalker OR blue sky charities).........that in itself is NOT a "petty contrivance" but a significant slap in the face to our people.......that alone makes her an asshole
we arent disrespecting our ancestors by running around claiming we are hereditary medicine holy people (as she did saying she is oglala medicine woman inherited by her oglala grandmother AFTER saying she didnt know she was native til she was an adult then later finding out she has no oglala in her....put yourself in an oglalas shoes)............
if you think playing redface is so harmless and inoffensive then im sure you think blackface is ok too......so why dont you go down to harlem and wear blackface and sing mammy and try convincing those people you are one of them and you are doing it out of respect......better yet put a collection hat out and say that donations will go to poor black families then provide no proof of it..........if you are ok with that then you need to do some deep soul searching guy
i encourage you to read some more of this forum and come to the right conclusions of what it is we are really doing here

Windwalker, a delightfully gracious and animated woman who provides a sense of serenity everywhere she goes, whose vocabulary is sprinkled with humor and a tremendous spirituality steeped in Native American culture, promotes positive health and wellbeing by embracing Native teachings with stories and legends that bring about positive behaviors in every person she meets. She is of Mi'kmaq, Eastern Cherokee, and Lenni-Lenape descent.
This is a quote from her manager http://mi2n.com/press.php3?press_nb=199847 concerning Laura's upcoming benefit for "Yraceburu Earth Wisdom" (http://www.newagefraud.org/smf/index.php?topic=1924.0)
