A Powwow is an event beyond simple definition. It is an event where people come to celebrate life, love, death, friends, family, and more. This website is dedicated to inform you and the general public more about Powwows. We decided to do powwows because Powwows are not seen in mainstream society and are not normally taught in Public schools around the country. We plan to show you how culturally powerful it is to attend one of these cultural events. We also would like to increase the number of people who know about and understand the concepts and ideas about Powwows.

Fundó un pueblo, creo una Iglesia y el trabajo de los aborígenes. No podemos desvalorizar nuestros inicios. El pueblo entero es una reliquia, debemos protegerla...

The Trail Where They Cried, or "Nunna daul Tsuny" in Cherokee, was also known as The Trail of Tears. More than 4,000 adults and children died as a result of illnesses, weaknesses, and torture from soldiers as Cherokee were rounded up and forced to walk to western lands. It started in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee and ended, for those who made the journey, in the Indian Territory of Oklahoma.
