Anishinaabe Bizindamoo Makak – Episode 13

Karen Drift is a Nett Lake elder and first language speaker of Ojibwemowin. She talks to program host Erik Redix about the Ojibwe naming ceremony and the role that dreams and visions play in giving a baby an Ojibwe name. She also speaks about the importance of learning and speaking the Ojibwe language all throughout one’s life–from childhood to the end of a person’s life.

Anishinaabe Bizindamoo Makak is supported in part by the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
