On June 4, 2009 Walter Lamar and Patrick Shining Elk conducted a session on Methamphetamine in Indian Country at the Annual SAIGE Conference held in San Diego, CA. Walter talked about the history of meth and Mexican cartel case studies that relate to Indian Country.
Patrick, a Shoshone from the Wind River Reservation, is a veteran Hollywood movie actor and stuntman. He offered candid insights into his personal struggles with meth. His presentation was a powerful message that needs to get out to our youth, Indian Country-wide. His story riveted folks to their seats.
Both Walter and Patrick appreciate being invited to speak to American Indian Government Employees.
