Folklorist extraordinaire, Jack “The Agnostic” Garcia continues the popular and critically acclaimed series with two sacred stories from the Blackfoot peoples. First off, Jack presents a historical overview of the Blackfoot – the most powerful Indian nation north of the Missouri, whose lands stretched from Montana into the upper regions of Alberta and Saskatchewan . Including the use of Shaman Stones known as the Iniskims – that had the power to call the massive Bison herds and the Medicine Wheel – a type of circular rocky connection to both the natural and supernatural world. Next up it’s a Blackfoot sacred story about tobacco called the sacred weed which tells of the origins of the plants ritual and ceremonial uses. Last but not least it’s another Blackfoot tale about the origins of the horse called Orphan Boy and The Elk Dog. In which a heroic outcast finds the courage to bring the strange and wondrous animal that serves the great spirit of a mysterious lake back to his people, changing their lives forever.
