Hello all.
I'm working on my Senior Seminar Paper that deals with "Fan Culture". At first I was gonna do it over my favorite R&B artist Erykah Badu, but I really couldn't find anything on her (academically). Then I went Denver March and it dawned on me. Why not write about powwows and their sub-cultures? I mean, I am from Oklahoma and have grown up around them my whole life. I love them and they keep my from getting homesick. I love the people I meet and seeing old homies... it's a lifestyle for many Natives across North America.
So if yall could help me out by answer a few questions, it would really help me get more persectives into my paper. No names will be mentioned, so don't worry. And my paper won't be published or anything, it will just allow me to graduate from college!
AHO!
1. In your opinion, what is a powwow?
2. When did you start powwow'n?
3. What is your favorite aspect(s) of powwows?
4. What is your least favorite aspect(s)?
5. If you could write a powwow dictionary, what words/slangs would you include, their definitions, and why?
6. What is your favorite powwow that your try to make it to every year and why?
