The First Nation Talking Stick is a powerful tool and symbol used to help solve problems and let people express themselves freely. Whoever holds a Talking Stick within their hands has the power of words. The Talking Stick helps the holder to find the courage to speak truthfully and wisely.
Join elder Debbie Eisan from the Mi’kmaw Native Friendship Centre as she shares the tradition of the Talking Stick. Listen to the Teachings of the Seven Grandfathers and how the Talking Stick can help foster listening, respect, patience and honesty. Design and decorate your very own Talking Stick to take home and share with your family.
