loudcrow:
No one from Pine Ridge has ever heard of this man. There was a Chief Standing Cloud of the Oglala:

The organizer has been contacted by Native Americans who have been told to keep their bigoted opinions to themselves as the "Chief" will be collecting money for the poor Lakota women which has been wrapped in red. The tickets are 325 British Pounds and the event is sold out.

April 16, 2006 | By CANDICE BOSELY — SHEPHERDSTOWN, W.Va.
On a peaceful patch of earth outside of Shepherdstown Saturday afternoon, two ceremonies were performed that some believe could date to when all of the continents were one.
A sweat lodge (Inipi) ceremony and a Yuwipi ceremony, both conducted by South Dakota medicine man Bill Stover, or Standing Cloud, were held on the property of David Levine along the Potomac River.
Both of the Native American spiritual ceremonies began by offering a pipe filled with tobacco, red willow bark and sage to Stover.

Is it possible that Bill Stover now has promoted himself to "Chief Standing Cloud"?

Promoter Diane Gower about "Chief Standing Cloud":
--- Quote from: http://www.dianegower-simplydivine.com/chief-standing-cloud ---I am truly privileged to announce that First Nation, Native American Elder, Chief Standing Cloud, will be our honoured guest, for the first time within the UK.
Taken place in the heart of the countryside of beautiful Rutland, these MAGICAL 3days you will receive authentic powerful teachings, healing and purification to the mind, body and spirit in inspiring traditional ceremonies shared within and outside the Inipi.
Born on Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, South Dakota and named by family member Brave Hawk, Brule. Chief Standing Cloud from, Oglala Lakota tribe (Sioux) carries his tradition and culture proudly with dignity and honour used by the Lakota ways today.
Chief Standing Cloud an artist uses many mediums to deliver his artwork “Winter Count” form, made up of prayers, dreams, visions and hopes. As an artist, much of this is expressed when he delivers teachings of the Sundance and Inipi ceremony’s. Chief Standing Cloud is also a Chanupa carrier of the sacred pipe where he delivers prayers to the creator while in sacred ceremony’s.
