Description
Anyone who has ever attended a Pow-wow notices there is something about the people who travel with the Pow-wows, sometimes on beat up old buses, sometimes the cars themselves are held up by duct tape. There are cars from hundreds of miles away, and as many as a dozen people can pile out of an old Chevy. The announcer (or crier) tries his best to be a comedian. Grannies sell beadwork, girls and boys play with one another. Relationships evolve, some at a social level, sometimes at an intimate level. Fried Bannock is sold from portable deep fryers. It is fun, and an affirmation of what it means to be Indian.
