Biography

Sun Bear (born Vincent LaDuke, August 31, 1929 – 1992) was a New Age author of Ojibwe descent. He was born on August 31, 1929, on the White Earth Indian Reservation to Louis and Judith La Duke. He was the father of activist, author, and former Green Party vice-presidential candidate Winona La Duke.

He was perhaps best known for his Medicine Wheel Gatherings, New Age weekend campout retreats with paid workshops and activities for spiritual seekers, which were denounced and picketed by the American Indian Movement.
