indigenous storytelling

Indigenous storytelling is a traditional practice where Indigenous peoples share their history, culture, and values through oral narratives. These stories often feature ancestors, animals, and nature, conveying lessons and explanations about the world. They serve not only as entertainment but also as educational tools to pass down knowledge across generations. Storytelling reinforces community identity and connection to the land, while incorporating spiritual beliefs and cultural practices. Each story reflects the unique experiences and worldviews of different Indigenous groups, making it a vital aspect of their heritage and a means of preserving their languages and traditions.
