Chigami-ziibing, the St. Louis River, carries many place names that describe it’s importance to the Anishinaabe. Learn the Ojibwemowin names for your favorite spots along the river and practice a bit of the language too. This River Talk is presented by Naawakwe William Howes III, the Gegaanzikiged (Ojibwemowin Project Manager) at Gegaanzongejig Ji-Aabadak Ojibwemowin, the Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa Language & Culture Program.
