FROM THE BOIS FORTE HERITAGE & CULTURAL CENTER
the BOIS FORTE: a BAND WITHOUT BORDERS
The Bois Forte people are not defined by lines drawn on a map. We feel a living kinship with the land of our ancestors. We respect the earth, and we are thankful for the gifts of the Creator.
Stories Under the Stars We gather here in Atisokanigamig , Legend House, to hear the traditions of our people that have been told by generations of storytellers. Animals, trees, stars, and people—everything has a story. These legends delight us, they make us laugh, and they make us think. If we listen carefully, they have the power to show us how to live.
“Our grandmothers tell us everything is alive. Everything has a spark, no matter what it is.”
