US-NATIVE AMERICAN INDIANS-POWWOW
Clemenceau Brown Fox Allen (L), principal chief of the Appalachian Americans of West Virginia, talks with Chief Three Feathers (R), Cherokee Wind Song Band of Washington, DC, 12 August 2005 as the National Pow Wow gets started at the MCI Center in the nation-s capital. Representatives from many of America-s Native American tribes are in town for the 2005 National Pow Wow, social gatherings of hundreds of Native Americans who follow traditional dances started centuries ago by their ancestors, which continually evolve to include contemporary aspects. Usually held between April and October, these events of drum music and dance are attended by Natives and non-Natives, all of whom join in the dancing and take advantage of the opportunity to see old friends and teach the traditional ways to a younger generation.
