____________
Death is a part of life.
Each tribe has protocol to deal with death and a time period of mourning.
In the olden days, strict periods of mourning were adhered to and supported by the entire tribe, village or community.
Today these strict rules of death and mourning are not followed as closely even by some of our most revered traditionalists!
Now, granted there are many who do stick by their teachings of death and mourning and I commend them.
Too often, Indian people are immediately back in the powwow arena enjoying themselves like nothing ever happened to their immediate relatives.
