Charley Bulletts is an enrolled member of the Kaibab Band of Paiute Indians who was recently hired as the Southern Paiute Consortium representative. Charley’s previous cultural data collections and site monitoring will be a valuable tool as he represents the Consortium’s interest as a member of AMWG.
Charley has learned the physical knowledge of the Grand Canyon from his grandfather, the late Dan Bulletts, who was a traditionalist and healer who worked with various universities and authors. Charley’s grandmother taught him the healing benefits of various plants and a hands-on approach as she too was a traditionalist and healer.
It is Charley’s belief that the efforts of the Southern Paiute Consortium would have made his grandparents very proud. The Consortium opens the doorway for the younger generations like himself to feel proud to be Southern Paiute.
