What is a powwow you ask? 

A powwow is a pan-tribal gathering of Native Americans people to celebrate our rich heritage, a chance to socialize with old friends and meet new friends, and educate and expose non-Indigenous people to traditions, dances, and customs. 

Come celebrate with us! Engage. Dance. Learn.

“One of our people in the Native community said the difference between white people and Indians is that Indian people know they are oppressed but don’t feel powerless. White people don’t feel oppressed, but feel powerless. Deconstruct that disempowerment. Part of the mythology that they’ve been teaching you is that you have no power. Power is not brute force and money; power is in your spirit. Power is in your soul. It is what your ancestors, your old people gave you. Power is in the earth; it is in your relationship to the earth.”
