Siksika Media was grateful to learn about the Protection Rawhide Case Workshop hosted by Siksika Prevention–Early Intervention.

During the gathering, Hutch Sittingeagle shared a powerful Blackfoot story, told both verbally and through sign language, creating a meaningful and uplifting moment for those in attendance. Storytelling is a vital part of our culture, and moments like these remind us of the strength of our language, traditions, and the teachings passed down through generations.

The workshop took place March 5, 2025, from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM at the Reunification Building, bringing community members together to learn, connect, and strengthen supports for families and children in Siksika.

Siksika Media appreciates the opportunity to witness and share moments that celebrate culture, knowledge, and community.

Pam Sitting Eagle Shared : “Blackfoot way of life is essential to Siksika identity. The doctrinarian of Canada’s history left a huge scar on the children of siksikawa. It’s time to break free of a way of life that has prevented our true identity to grow. Programs through “Traditional Healing Ripples Inc.” support and strengthen Blackfoot language and culture to over come inter generational trauma. I believe in respect for all people as human and not gender”.”
