Ah, the smell of fry bread, bright regalia, and vendors selling everything from dreamcatchers to expensive jewellery — the modern day powwow is really a feast for the senses.

Falen and Leah take to the powwow trail to find out what the powwow was and what it is now, and how it is helping some connect to culture. Check out our episode on the history of blackface here.And check out our episode on the potlatch ban here.
