The Grand Portage Band of Lake Superior Chippewa will host its annual Rendezvous Days Powwow Aug. 8-10, in Grand Portage, Minnesota, according to event postings. The annual powwow coincides with the Grand Portage Rendezvous Days celebration and features traditional dance, song and family gatherings.
Attendees are asked to respect traditional songs, dances and ceremonies. The tribe requests no pets, removal of headwear when asked and photography only at appropriate times. The powwow offers a chance to experience Anishinaabe culture and community.
We provide the independent reporting that non-Native, extractive outlets often overlook. We give our communities the context and the facts they need to make informed decisions.
As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we exist to illuminate tribal government decision-making for everyone who cares about transparency about Native issues. Because the consequences of restricted press freedom affect our communities every day, our trauma-informed reporting is rooted in a deep, firsthand expertise. Every gift helps keep the fire burning. A monthly contribution makes the biggest impact.
