How to watch a real native american powow
"Low-key cultural education."
How I did it: My husband has always followed Native cultural events, so he started me going with him. I especially enjoy how comfortable the events are, casual and friendly, I guess when I knew I would be going to "ceremonies" I took with it my assumption of the kind of Western formality that goes with ceremony...this has a very different, heart-filled feeling.
Lessons & tips: Most of the events I have attended had few outsiders, but were open to them, especially when I showed that I was going to be observing in a friendly way and I asked questions that showed genuine interest in the spirit of their customs.
