About this listen

Sterling HolyWhiteMountain, who grew up on the Blackfeet Reservation, is at once able bring alive the distinctiveness of Blackfeet identity, culture, and what it means to belong to the land, while simultaneously evoking deeper truths at the heart of the human condition. Our conversation covers this dance between the particular and the universal, how language brings landscape into being, storytelling as an aesthetic object, the relationship between oral Blackfeet tradition and written narratives, and the role of art in transcending the self.
