The Mankillers drum group was started in 1991 at a gathering at Captain Jack's Stronghold in Northern California by women who were at the time singing with the Humboldt State University Indian Student Drum and the Red Cedar drum of Arcata, California. In some tribal traditions, women's voices join with men's to create beautiful harmonies and backgrounds for the songs of our Indigenous nations. There have been forgotten traditions of women's warrior society singers, as evidenced by early etchings of Cree women's drum societies as far back as the early 1700's. -- Andr� Cramblit: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operations Director Northern California Indian Development Council NCIDC (http://www.ncidc.org) is a non-profit that meets the development needs of American Indians and operates an art gallery featuring the art of California tribes (http://www.americanindianonline.com) Visit and show your support for the Grass Roots Oyate http://members.tripod.com/GrassRootsOyate Clemency for Leonard Peltier.
