Today we pause for a moment, because one of the great storytellers of our time has walked on. Robert Redford has passed at 89, in the mountains of Utah that he so dearly loved.

Many will remember him as the dashing actor of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid or All the President’s Men. Others will honor him as the founder of the Sundance Institute and Film Festival, where so many young voices first found their way into the circle of cinema. But for some of us, his voice carries another weight—he was the narrator of Incident at Oglala, a film that dared to speak truth about Wounded Knee and the struggle of Leonard Peltier. Redford did not need to lend his name to that story, but he did, and in doing so he helped carry our voices into places where they were often ignored.

He was more than an actor. He was a man who used his gifts to fight for the land, for the rivers, for the forests, for the stories that might otherwise have been silenced. He stood for the environment when few in Hollywood dared, and he reminded the world that art is not just entertainment—it is responsibility.

The kêhtê-ayak (elders) tell us that when someone departs, their footsteps do not vanish. They become part of the trail for those who come after. Robert Redford’s trail will not soon fade. It winds through the canyons of Utah, across the stages of Sundance, and through every independent film that found the courage to speak its truth.

May his memory be a teaching. May his work continue to ripple like stones cast into the waters. May we remember him not only for the roles he played, but for the courage he showed in telling stories that mattered.

Mîkwêc, Robert Redford. You walked in two worlds—Hollywood and the natural world—and you left both better than you found them.
