Forward pay, that's today's Appalachian Wireless. A powwow is a Native American event focused on joining together to dance, sing, visit, renew old friendships, and make new ones. As part of the Geniwile Festival, participants can take part in the powwow and learn about different Native American cultures. We'll post our colors and have our flag song, which is like our version of the National Anthem. We'll honor our veterans with a veteran song, all veterans, and for the Native or not. And then after that, just a lot of social dancing, what we call inter-tribal dancing, where everybody's invited to come out and join us, you don't have to be Native, you don't have to be in regalia. Just come out and join us and dance with us, like I said, it's a social dance. It'll also be some good Native food out here, and some crafts, and things like that, and be some Native food playing, and storytelling, and all kinds of stuff like that. Organizers say powwows are a way to correct misconceptions and teach in a fun way. There's a lot of misinformation, and a lot of stereotypes that need breaking down. And a lot of folks around, especially here in Kentucky, are particularly proud of their Native heritage. Folks have Native heritage, and this is one way that they can come out and kind of experience that a little bit. People that can make it out here will come out and dance, and share our culture, and they'll be able to tell different dancers by the regalia that they're wearing, and be able to tell what nation they're from. The Geniwiley Festival's Indian Powwow will continue at noon and after the parade tomorrow. Reporting in Prestonsburg for EKB News, I'm Shelby Steele.
