A Nation Weeps
Sharon Perrault

I cry for my brother, my nephew, my son.
I hear your call through the fire and the wind
Where visions of the past danced in your head.

There were Pipe Carriers, Medicine Men and Firekeepers
Who offered you teachings, tobacco and peace.
You awoke from your sleep to gather your feathers, bundle and pipe.

Then you were drawn to the circle with song and chants from your cell.

Your spirit longed for comfort and prayer.
So you lifted your thoughts and directed your dreams up above,
With swiftness, softness and light.

The Creator and the dream catcher and the dreamer became one.

NATIVE LAW - THE COURTS

In many Aboriginal communities in Canada,
sentencing circles allow victims, offenders, community elders,
other community members and court officials
to discuss the consequences of a conflict and to explore ways of resolving it.
Some sentencing circles operate within the formal justice system
as an alternative to the conventional sentencing process.
Sentencing circles are sometimes also used for cases
that are diverted from the justice system
