Stories
Native American - Tales From The Longhouse. I tell traditional stories of the Longhouse peoples who lived predominently along the Eastern Seaboard. I use various telling methods including the old Native American sign languaage, Call & Response and others. I use Narragansett words but the stories are told in English.
