Deanne Hupfield: Healing Intergenerational Trauma Through Pow Wow Dancing

Regalia isn’t a costume, it’s a connection to self and community. 

Deanne Hupfield, Speaker, Pow Wow Dancer and Teacher, and Regalia-Making Instructor, joins the Matriarch Movement to have a candid conversation about her journey into pow wow dancing, regalia making, and matriarchy. 

Deanne shares her insights on the realities of generational trauma from the Sixties Scoop; from overcoming addiction and juvenile detention, to rebuilding her family.
