The section I last read is when his sister(not his niece, that was an error on my part)was under the mentorship of an elder to help her learn how to deal w/ the Spirits that come in her midst. She was sent 100 miles away from their home village to undergo intensive training with her mentor, who was from another village.
Next, Dr. Some' talks about an experience he had w/ a youth in the west, who was written off by his parents as being a bad, unruly kid. Dr. Some' saw in him untapped genius, a Spiritual Awareness that merely needed awakening. He established a mentorship relationship with the boy, prayed with him, and helped him develop his connection with the ancestors, and use their wisdom to guide him in his life. Dr. Some' does not say if the boy was white or not, but I wondered, because he talks about how wealthy the boy's parents were, and how their wealth did not impress him.
