Waasa-Inaabidaa Episode Six - Ojibwe Oral Tradition

Episode Six: Ojibwemowin - “Ojibwe Oral Tradition” begins with Ojibwe origin narratives, and chronicles the decline and near disappearance of Ojibwe language and culture, continues through rebirth and renewal, and comes full circle to today’s cultural renaissance and revival of language and tradition. A mixture of Ojibwe language (with English sub-titles), animation, drama, artwork, archival photos, interviews, and story telling presents a rich tapestry and narrative of Ojibwe creation and tradition. This episode features survival narratives, the migration story, and contemporary language and cultural preservation programs emphasizing today’s Ojibwe children and future generations.
The Ojibwe people have adapted and survived generations of assaults on Ojibwe culture, language and identity. Today, Ojibwe language and traditions thrive in all aspects of Anishinaabe-Ojibwe life.

Growing up with my mom 100% Ojibwe, I would ask why do we not speak our language she answered she wanted us to blend in with our surroundings in Montreal. The results of residential schools. I am learning and involving my children to reconnect to our heritage and culture.

I am Anishinabe and I speak Anishinabe-moowin. Ojibway is two words. Oji is like kissing or puckering up. Bway is roasting. Abway. So Ojibway means. Pucker up until you roast. They use to roast their enemies like Lakota, Dakota, Mohawks and the French/ English

[@joshuamanitowabi4906]

I thought Ojibwa meant those who 'pucker up their moccasins by burning them'?

It's interesting how native americans have the same origin story as us finnic people all the way in northeastern Europe. Difference is that instead of a muskrat, it was the loon who created land from the bottom of the primordial sea. Our ancestors come from Siberia, so it is said these myths are related to each other

Enjoyed the series. But a lot of our people are losing their way because of drugs, so sad. Why can't the reserves help their peoples? Something needs to be done

I heard Winona LaDuke talk slurry and vulgar language in front of a broad audience. I dont like her.
