Lac Du Flambeau Ojibwe History | Tribal Histories
On the bank of Crawling Stone Lake, Ernie St. Germaine shares stories handed down by the Lac Du Flambeau Ojibwe. He tells of the migration from Madeline Island to their present location, describes how the original six clans were given to the people, remembers the volatile spear-fishing controversy, and explains the importance of passing on stories to future generations.

I never had much of a chance to explore and learn my mother's side of the family and our culture since we lived too far south to regularly visit the region. But I always loved hearing stories my maternal grandmother had of growing up around the lake, of the people, and the land. It's been almost six years since I was last able to visit when we went to spread her ashes on the grounds of her childhood home and I can't wait to go back and educate myself more about my ancestry and heritage
My family used to live in beautiful Lac Du Flambeau. We live in Milwaukee, Wisconsin but we always drove up north to see them. I have so many great memories of my family there. I will never forget the beauty of nature there too 🥰
Keeshkemun is my 6th great grandfather. I haven't lived in Wisconsin for over 30 years and didn't grow up learning much about this side of my family.
During the exercising of spearing rights there was a sticker going around, "Save a fish spear an Indian" I would write on them, "Save an Indian, spear a racist" Those poor boys always backed down when they said they would spear me and I said, let's dance. --------------------------------------- Who knows on which lands my feet have trod through the epochs. I have always felt a connection to the Anishinabe. As a child The song of Hiawatha stirred me to goosebumps.

Thank you, this is wonderful and makes me a little homesick.
Awesome.. experience.. good luck to you from.. Gent, little Shell Montana
OH, It was grand to hear you speak Ernie. We have someone in common, Martha. No it did not last ,as I was too much of a Gaia soul. Peter was ten at the time. I feel terrifically honored to have this circuitous connection. I have always been visited by bears, haha, and Sasquatch. Total respect to you sir.
I have had much trouble between being ojibwe and being where I am here h. The south due to my mother moving. I use videos like these to kinda explain my culture to friends. This is how I am odd...
Awesome! Thank you PBS
Fascinating

Sabé is Bigfoot, a tribe of people's around the world. They live in this world and the Spirit World. No bodies or bones will be found. Lol. Finding Bigfoot? They Find You, you don't find Them. Lol. I love my hairy brothers and sisters. They have given me a gift. A gift of protection, wisdom, and understanding. I walk unimpeded everywhere. City to woods, safe always. I sleep like a baby in a tent, especially when I know they are around. I gave up hunting. They don't want me to. I killed one deer when my family needed it. Since then, I've never filled a hunting tag. Maine, Montana, North Dakota, Alaska, and Idaho. Never filled a deer, elk, or bear tags. An enigma I can kind of explain. Thank you for reading. Non Christian, Native American Indian! Hoka Hay!
