#3 Ojibwa Storyteller explains importance of Native American eagle feathers to Manoomin Project teens in Marquette, MI

During the summer of 2007, an Ojibwa elder spoke to Manoomin Project teens about the use of Eagle Feathers by Native Americans including why tribal members can legally possess the sacred feathers.
The teens were also told about powwows and the use of ceremonial tobacco as a sign of respect for nature and to Native American culture.
Over 100 Manoomin Project teens have planted more than one ton of wild rice seeds over the past four years, however the endeavor also stresses education about American Indian vulture and heritage.
Keweenaw Bay Indian Community elder Glen Bressette spoke with the teens in July 2007 at Presque Isle Park along Lake Superior in Marquette, MI.
