2. Do you personally believe someone can be a social activist and also be a peaceful, non-aggressive, non-violent person? How do you see that exhibiting itself in your shamanic community of peers? [4:35]

3. From your perspective, how does the effectiveness of prayer or meditation compare with marching and being vocal about a position or belief? [9:00]
