James Bay Cree Youth

Compilation Album

1996

Cree Nation Youth Council

If this compact disc is any indication, then the James Bay area is a hotbed of musical talent. The 10 artists featured on this 15-track disc are the David Cox Memorial Singers, Charles J. Hester, Miigwin, Blue Thunder, Thunder Nation, Francine Weistche, Chiistin, Miiyobin and Joshua Iserhoff. A nice surprise about this project is that some of the material recorded are original compositions.

In the early days, Greg Staats' family recorded their history in the oral tradition, in his grandfather's time it was reported in journals.

Now Staats uses the camera to tell the story of his people.

Staats, 36, a Mohawk, was born and raised in Sour Springs, which is little more than a cross roads on the Six Nation Reserve near Brantford, Ont.

Staats, who opened a solo exhibit of his work at the Tom Thompson Gallery in Owen Sound on Sept. 13, is gaining international acclaim for his re-creation of positive realities of First Nation people.

"This is the way it should be. It should be friendly to everyone."

That's how Siksika Blackfoot Elder and Anglican minister Arthur Ayoungman summed up Tribal Day '97.

The Aboriginal showcase of culture, song and dance was held again this year at the Rafter 6 Lodge in the heart of Alberta' Kananaskis Country, on Sunday, Aug. 24.

Gate counts put the number of people attending the all-day event at about 700.

This was the fifth time the event has been held, and featured a very close up glimpse into Native life.
