RE: One American Indian Tradition Making A Comeback Plus Z.S. Liang's Painting
I've seen one of these only once! Very rare, but I do see people wrapping their babies in the same way, just without the board.
I love seeing these old photos, that m you for sharing!

Howdy foxyspirit! I agree that the old photos are real treasures and although this is a relatively small issue, it's a step in the right direction in allowing more tribe culture to be activated and expressed. Thanks so much for reading and commenting!
Any growth like this is a great thing indeed. As long as it keeps going.

Howdy today foxyspirit! I agree, it's a small issue but a step in the right direction. Hopefully the first of many!
Today I am bringing the kids to do some cultural crafts. It is family wellness week and I just messaged the Beaver House to see if it was ok that we go but with late arrival and she told me what we will be doing. And guess what that is???!!! Wooden baby carriers!!! I had no idea and I kid you not, this is exactly what we are doing. I'm so stoked and how funny it is that this is what you've been talking about 😁😁😁

haha! THAT is too amazing! How cool is that? It should be a wonderful time for you guys, I'm thrilled.
I guess what I read was correct, that they are making a comeback!
What is the Beaver House, a native tribe run organization?
Very cool!
Yes, the Beaver House is a tribe organization although they welcome all tribes, they even welcome non tribe people that want to be part of it, it's awesome.

Howdy again foxyspirit! And what is their main purpose, the Beaver House? Many things like education about their culture?
Good question. I would say yes but because they are independent... Or were independent (I have to check on that), we weren't hearing much about it. But now they are starting to grow and are doing amazing things. Last winter they did 13 moons sweats for the first time. They will be doing pow wows as well (which is awesome because it also means less traveling for me since it's closer) and they just opened their healing center using cultural healing and also modern, is what I understood. This month is packed with a lot of activity, full moon teachings, language gatherings, drummings and sharings. It really is the place to be.
