Tom,

You have posted some excellent "food for thought."

In the last ten years, powwow evolution has skyrocketed at the same pace as modern technology.

I have seen a lot of posts on pws.com where so many members are looking forward to the "new" powwow trends, outfits and songs that have come out this powwow season.

I'm not saying this is bad. It is good to look to the future. . .

However, the direction of powwows seem to now being decided by younger people and "newbies" who DO NOT have a firm grasp of the roots and meanings of powwow history.

Any comments?
