Oral tradition is a sacred practice within All of our culture, communities, And families. Along with the coordinated dance of simply talking and being heard, oral tradition helps people learn life lessons their own way.
Through time immemorial our people and ancestors have used the oral tradition of storytelling to pass down history, values, language, and culture to each generation.
