Episode 26, "The Story of Kisily Pewick" and "Interview with Skye McMicheal"

I have the honor of presenting the story of Kisily Pewick as told by Rosenda Nolasquez.  Kisily Pewick was born in Cupa. His mother took him away to another village after a war in which the entire Cupa village was killed.  He was just a baby.  At the other village he was bigger and stronger than the other kids.  He also proved to be a better hunter.  After several years his mother told him who he was and where he came from.  The clip that I picked from the story is where Kisily Pewick’s kids are named.  There is Kaval, Blacktooth(Pe’tama Tulnikish) and Norte. The story appears in the book “Mulu Wetam” and starts on page 35.  After the story, there is a Birdsong by the Inter-Tribal Bird-singers.  The show will conclude with the second part of a conversation with Skye McMicheal as he discusses the importance of the “Drum” at a Powwow.  He also speaks about the uniqueness of Pala’s Sixth Annual “Honoring Traditions” Powwow.
