May 27, 1932 Cochiti Reservation Albuquerque New Mexico: Pablo Abeita of Isleta Pueblo was one of the most important Native leaders in the Southwest in his day. Abeita was an effective advocate for Isleta and other pueblos in New Mexico, testifying before Congress on several occasions. An articulate orator with a biting sense of humor, Abeita, fought successfully for Native rights to their ancestral lands and water.
In this clip, Pablo Abeita's powerful critique of white American society's materialism, individualism, and greed—symbolized by a devotion to money and rigid routines ("slave to the clock"). The Native Rights leader contrasts this with the communal, spiritual, and free lifestyle of Native Americans, emphasizing that despite historical injustices and suffering at the hands of white settlers, Native people harbor no ill-will. Instead, they invite others to join them in living harmoniously with nature, prioritizing community and spiritual well-being over the pursuit of wealth and artificial comforts.
