Forced attempts to assimilate Indians into American culture, along with confusing and discriminatory policies, caused a deterioration of conditions for the Lake Superior Ojibwe Indians. Although nearly destroyed, the spirit and determination of the Ojibwe people persevered. That spirit is beginning to experience a resurgence on the Lac du Flambeau Reservation. It is exposing a culture whose ancestry is rich in knowledge, wisdom, kinship and understanding of the natural laws and cycles of nature. “We are the People of Lac du Flambeau” welcomes and encourages non-Indian neighbors and visitors to experience and be guests of the tribal community of today. This program is designed to promote fellowship and to celebrate the cultural diversity of the Lac du Flambeau Band of Lake Superior Ojibwe. Length: 25 minutes |
