NNAHM Day 17: Every summer the Mattaponi hold an annual powwow that is open to both family and public. During this time we get to see traditional drumming and dance, as well as beautiful hand-made regalia that is often passed down through generations. There will be great food and our artisans will be open to show and sell their art. It is a great time to remember the past and share in the present. To many it is a family reunion since not everyone lives on the reservation. This practice is just one way we keep our culture alive and celebrate with one another. When our children are older I’d love to go every year. This video is a documentary made about our tribe’s tradition of the annual powwow. Enjoy!https://youtube/watch?v=eHprBEkiNRY
