“This honor belongs to the farmers and the people — we just carried their song.” A TEARFUL TRIBUTE. In Austin, Willie Nelson, now 92, stood alongside his friend Neil Young — not beneath stage lights, but within the embrace of the Oglala, Ponca, and Omaha Nations. After decades of championing family farmers and Indigenous communities, he received a recognition unlike any award: blessings and prayer songs from chiefs and elders. The moment moved even Willie to tears. “This honor belongs to the farmers and the people — we just carried their song,” he whispered, his humility shining through. It was a rare glimpse into the heart of a legend, honored not for fame, but for a lifetime of fight and faith.
