Rick Dakotah investigates the "Woods People" of Vermont. "I have spent many years in some forest or another. I feel the best when I am out and about. Nature to me is "Love". I feel as though life is fair and one can get respect by respecting the other creatures of the forest. I stumbled into this research while filming my adventures. The "Woods People" are what I call them...Bigfoot to White Hairy Beings, UFO's, and more..."
Rick Dakotah continues his investigation of the "Woods People." "The woods people are dragging me further into their world. I spend most days out in the forest and mountains tracking the creatures. This is video two of the story. Do I believe in Sasquatch/Bigfoot? Yes I do but I don't really know what they look like. I have had actual visuals but the mind makes it hard to understand and tries to make something it doesn't understand...understandable."
"I often say sociology is a martial art, a means of self-defence. Basically, you use it to defend yourself, without having the right to use it for unfair attacks." (Pierre Bourdieu) The world has witnesses who speak out loud what others keep to themselves. They are neither gurus, nor masters, but those who consider that the city and the world can be thought out. The sociologist, Pierre Bourdieu is one such witness." Over a three- year period, Pierre Carles' camera followed him through different situations: a short conversation with Günter Grass, a lively conference with the inhabitants of a working-class suburb, his relations with his students and colleagues and his plea that sociology be part of the life of the city. His thinking has a sort of familiarity, which means it is always within our reach. It is the thinking of a French intellectual who has chosen to think his times.
