PESHAWBESTOWN, Mich. (AP) For traditional Anishinaabe dancer, Julia Martell, the feeling of stepping inside the pow wow circle is “indescribable.”
“There’s overwhelming pride in doing something that was kept from the community for so long,” said Martell, adding that it’s not just a feeling, but an element of connection with community and culture through dance and song.
