Black Elk Speaks is a visionary narrative in which he tells of his initial vision and subsequent
visions. As a healer and wicasa wakan (sacred, or holy man), he was responsible for the
welfare of the people. Black Elk’s calling was unusual because he received it at a very young
age and it was bestowed without his asking. Discuss how this affected him.

that Black Elk’s telling of his experiences with animal spirits differed in intensity from theirs?
If so, why do you think so?
Black Elk made the decision to share his vision beyond his cultural group. What do you think
prompted him to do so?
What symbolism does the circle hold for the Oglala? Give examples of the ways in which
Black Elk uses the circle as an allegory for what is happening to his people.
How did Black Elk feel about the fulfillment of his obligations to his people? Was his
assessment correct, or do you think his message has broader implications?
