My late grandfather Wilson loved this song. He loved Tribal Journeys. He liked the unity that came from it and the acknowledgment of our traditional territories. He got a canoe for our family / community. Unity is hard for families and Communities at times. I remember standing with my late grandfather in Port Alberni for a memorial for the late Jerry Jack. The relationships we form in politics, and culture are so important to our people. We stand together as one for our future generations. My late grandfather was so proud of our family out on the water, I remember his smile and he would often be recording videos. He liked a paddle song I composed and it made him proud to see me and my cousins singing together. He really liked the dance where late Frank pretended to be drunk dancing, these little memories I hold dear to my heart. I can just hear late Franks voice speaking his language and when he spoke with love for traditional ways.

So powerful and very sacred. What an honor to be on many journeys with him and share songs and dances together. He blessed our shores and our village many times with his knowledge and presence. The Quileute people are honored and forever endebted to him and his family for all that he has done. He lifted the hearts of many. Waatch aleet sha shosta from the Quileute people. ❤❤❤

wonderful blessing from this video thanks for posting this sacred traditional dance probably wasn't a good idea of posting it but there always a reason why even being a full blooded Native Pueblo I take it in to my heart cause I know I can compare to these type of ceremonies... the fire, the people, and that's wonderful song.. its really a great blessing keep up native world and all ceremonies mother earth will stay stronger... younger generation please listen too your elders, clans men, clans women, and even yourself cause life needs us an we need life to keep going... we will protect all ethnics but like wise to those that have strong traditional doings... my prayers to the person who upload this video and to all that sacrifice themselves to take a big role in this ceremony.... thank you

This is a powerful video and blessed to have watched it, but I agree that we must refrain from posting video broadly to protect our sacred songs and teachings. My nation does everything in it's power to deny video and pictures within our c̓áiǧac̓i, especially when our c̓áiqa perform our sacred songs and dance, such as our λu̓ḷáx̌a and tánís ceremonies.

Are they summoning something? Or are they showing resect to the stars? Or showing respect to their culture? What was the original meaning of this dance...?
@janineshaughnessy37375 жыл бұрын
Eatch hand movement has i different meaning. There is one where the woman are wishing good energy to their tribe. They are not summon anything. It's a ladys dance. Its a dance to respect all lady's in our tribe. Hahah i had to laugh at this though.
