Society & Culture
In this episode, Karthika explore the dance tradition of Native American tribes. In Native American cultures, dance is a way of expression, a language in itself. Dances tell stories. They are used as a medium for prayer and each dance has its own significant meaning. From grass dance, hoop dance, fancy dance and even women’s traditional dances like jingle dance and shawl dance, we learn about the importance and significance of each of the dances. Karthika also shares some dos and don’ts for experiencing a Native American pow wow, which is an inter-tribal dance celebration authentically and respectfully.
