InterTribal presents:
Good morning and welcome to your weekend!
Today is forecast to be rainy. I hope this is not a bad event for any of us.
Today’s show celebrates Indigenous People’s Day, Sunday, October 10, 2021. I hope you enjoy the selection and blend of music presented this morning.
Events this Weekend
This weekend the Richmond Folk Festival returns for live performances down on Browns Island – This year’s indigenous performers are Jasmine Bell & North Bear.
Jasmine is a two-time world champion hoop dancer (traditionally a male dance) and a carrier of the Lakota traditions.
North Bear, is an acclaimed Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone drum group from Wind River reservation in central Wyoming. North Bear is one of the foremost exponents of the Northern Plains “straight” or “traditional” style of singing, This weekend you will experience North Bear driving the dance with their powerful falsetto voices. North Bear was founded in 2003, and is led by Jasmine’s husband, Luke Bell.
Of course, the Richmond Folk Festival is free and open to the public.
The American Indian College Fund Presents: INDIGE-BRATION – a Virtual Concert Celebrating the Indigenous People.
Sunday, October 10th (Indigenous Peoples’ Day Eve) at 6:30 pm MDT. – 8:30 pm EDT.
INDIGE-BRATION is a first-time ever event hosted by the American Indian College Fund. This event is free, however, seating is limited so registration is required.
