Jinglebelle: Thank you for this enlightenment. You are politically correct. But, only one generation ago many American Anishnabe referred to themselves as Chippewa. Today, like the Anishnabe, most tribes are taking a stand on correcting their tribal names (ie.
Sioux/Lakota-Dakota, Navaho/Dineh', Delaware/Lenape etc. etc.)

keeb_k: Thank you for the story of the Jingle dress. This is one of two versions that that are told by "Anishnabes." Again . . . one version is told by the people of White Fish Bay and the other by the people of Mille Lacs.

But this still doesn't answer the original question:

"Who was this sick child?"

Are either of you or is anybody in your bands related to this sick young girl who is a part of BOTH stories???

Do you know who's family she came from????????
