The Raindancers

These stories are a collection of moral stories intertwined with the beliefs culture customs ceremonies and traditional ways of our family. We have blood and tribal connections to the Cree Saulteaux and Assiniboine people. Equay my kokum told stories of her childhood her nine-year stay in the Blue Mission residential school and abusive marriages. She hoped that this book would help others who have lost the teachers/elders in their families. She wanted the old ways and all the information documented and preserved for the generations to come. She was a strong believer in putting away our addictions and following the old ways and teachings from her father Raindancer. The Indian way is the harder way to follow but it would pave our way back home to Creator.
