In this issue

In this ever-changing world, it’s comforting to know that some things remain the same, like the rising of the sun and the changing of the seasons. This summer issue of SAY is filled with fascinating information about traditions that we hope will inspire you to further explore your spirituality. The cover story, starting on page 12, brings attention to masterful film creations by Indigenous filmmakers, all available to be streamed for free. Learn about the time-honoured sacred Sundance ceremony from the perspective of a Sundancer and a seasoned Sundance Chief on page 6, then delve into the recognition and renewal of vocal tradition in modern times (page 26). And, on page 17, we celebrate Indigenous entrepreneur Jennifer Harper for her innovative and eco-friendly cosmetics company Cheekbone Beauty. Find all this and more in this issue of SAY.
