2024 Gathering of Nations Pow Wow

[@dreamlesssleepart]

The fact that a non-native is charging huge fees for native people to participate in our own culture is ridiculous

[@charleswalkingcrow5584]

Lo❤ing Gathering Of Nations yá'át'ééh UK

[@angelvaldez8048]

Native Americans need to address the enrollment policy issues so that it benefits everyone who identifies themselves as Indian/Native American. The bigger, the better.

[@SaboCatGirl]

😂😂😂 well that was awkward. 🤣🤣🤣 RIP GON 😅

[@Manape78]

It's a holy place but we charge for everything!

[@AZSPARKY1979]

Rightfully so. Couldn’t imagine the expense this event cost.

[@tbraveheart1]

@@AZSPARKY1979 Let's not forget they have Corporate Sponsors that foot a lot of the bill.

Here is a big show, good lights, good Soundequipment,also cameras everywhere, every drum and sing is clear to hear. A good thing to show world who you are. And between this you can make a lot of GON with your own work,energy and passion.

[@frankglizzzy9451]

Want to go to a holy place. Go to church, go sit with your elders sweat, go sundance. If this dude cared for our people he should at least offer 30-40k for first place singing champions. 3-5k first place for dancers. Like why not especially lot natives travel all way from Canada and usa just for exposure for they groups and moves trying to cover your arrogance and greed with your accolades always sounds lousy to me 😴 I pray the creator isn’t to harsh on him in his next life for using our people for fortune and fame when at the end of the day no one will remember his name. We are still here tho wopila 🙌🏾

[@49nvroom]

IMiss the pit Oklahoma checking in!

[@hoskieubarbara7395]

I agree , the pit has a wider area for the dancers to gather . I heard the arena was packed this year.

[@hotwings2k23]

I do too

[@esmeraldamanning2299]

Would have been nice to have said his speech in the beginning of the event when everyone was there. Not the end when there's mostly empty seats...come on.

[@misso7919]

If there wasnt some truth to the internet talk he wouldnt be getting so mad just my opinion but it definitely struck a nerve 🤔

[@SAginas-v2p]

I only skipped forward to where everyone time stamped... I don't even know what happened? But that seemed rather awkward 😂

[@serafinamunoz-vallo4475]

Is this live live

[@Cleeroy69]

Was a good powwow

[@roxelarge6097]

what exactly happened??

[@dat1ndnguy]

Folks have been talking smack on Derrick for decades. I guess he's had enough...? He's married into a Native family at least. 🤷🏽‍♂️ None of these same folks say squat about the countless powwows that are sponsored by white corporations at white colleges and the like.

[@ontariobushcraft536]

Check out this hoser... lol

[@OriginalAmerican789]

Maybe if you could make GON affordable to us Native Americans that dont receive government $, per cap, etc.
