In 1974 he traveled to Akwesasne Mohawk territory and helped with the production of Akwesasne Notes, a Native and natural peoples news magazine. In 1975 through 1976 Rahkeh returned to North Carolinato work with his people in reclaiming their culture. Then in 1976 Rahkeh met his second teacher of the ways, Mad Bear Anderson, of the Tuscarora Territorynear Lewiston, New York.

He has helped many people over the years. He began teaching within Native Culture in 1975 and as he evolved so has his teaching. Through the experience of the genocide that has been and is upon North American Indians (The Original People of North America), Rahkeh was instructed to educate people of American Society on these Problems and their causes.

In later years people from American Society began to ask for help, and the only way for him to help them to understand our problems, was and is to help them to understand themselves and their problems and the causes of these, then to help them take their Inner Journey of themselves to face and to understand what they're made-up of and to free themselves from what's not healthy for their life or life itself, without giving away any of our Sacred Medicines or Ways.
