S1E7 - Episode 7 - After the Harvest

  • Summary

  • Episode 7- After the Harvest

    In this episode of Our Grandparent’s Teachings, our host Chuck Miller explains how winter fits into the cycle of Tlingit way of life. Autumn is for hard work during the harvesting season and after the harvest, in December, is a time of reflection, community sharing and storytelling. In this episode we get back to traditional storytelling with the help of our guest speaking, Shaagunaastaa (Bob Sam), an iconic Tlingit storyteller who has traveled across the U.S and Europe sharing legends and Tlingit history for a wide audience. We will also hear from the archives from one of the most revered Tlingit elders from the 1970s as well as songs from the Kaagaanwaan and Kiks’adi clans and some reflections. Please join us and we hope you enjoy this rich history.
