Many Kiowas believe that song is a gift from God.
Its power, argues Luke E.
Lassiter, rests in the many ways that community members hear, understand, and feel it: Song has power.
As I begin to understand what this means for my mentors, I am just beginning to understand what this means in my life.
They are not just singers.
They are vehicles for something greater than all of us.
Indeed, I now understand that I am not just a singer.
I will sing until I die.
As a boy, Lassiter.
It | Song has power |
