Gregor F. Narholz - Great Moments 1
These beaded pieces were closely linked to the visitors’ experiences at the falls. By the mid-1800s, Niagara Falls was surrounded by tourist traps, hucksters, and amusements. An “Indian” souvenir was part of the trip. The beadwork meant economic and cultural survival for the Ska ru re. For the tourist, it was a connection to the mysterious force buried in the carnival atmosphere around the falls. Today a piece like the one represented in my photo-collage would be sold for around $125.
As I look at this image of my great-grandmother Flossie and her friends in the Indian Village at the New York State Fair, I chuckle at those silly bark booths and marvel at her willingness to continue this kind of inevitably lopsided cultural exchange. The money put down on the table is merely a token. What is really being purchased is a momentary release from the crimes of the past.
-Jolene Rickard, “Cew Ete Haw I Tih: The Bird That Carries Language Back to Another” Partial Recall
I created the story and brought these memories together, and now my past is different from the past I had before. Especially the memories of my father. He was a reserved man, a non-talking person. I know that, but there was this window when he was a different person. A very brief window, but now that is the person who inhabits each of my previous memories.
