Indians Sparkle at Monroe Pow Wow
Two hundred American Indians from Brooklyn to California attended a three day pow wow in Monroe. Dancers aged 3 to 85 performed in a large outdoor circle at the Plume Museum grounds sponsored by The Two Bears Longhouse and Medicine Drum Society of New York City. Attendees spoke of white America’s injustices and broken treaties while spectators, including Princess Ramona Peace Valley, watched under stars and heat, with teepees, food stalls, and late night dances.
