Before the European people came to this land, Potawatomi People lived here. Mr. Perrot will provide insights into Anishinabe history and the values held in this traditional culture. We will hear how a people can live sustainably on the land taking only what is needed while providing for future generations. We will also come to know how core values of love, humility, and respect can be part of a system that emphasizes cooperation and supportive relations for the common good. It is an effort to see how all creation is related. Join our circle for these inspirational teachings.
