In this episode, I give a window into the world of Coushatta storytelling by telling four different Rabbit Tales, three of which are given in both Koasati & English, and the last only in English. I explain characteristics of Rabbit Tales and provide commentary about each story. I hope to do many more episodes like this in the future.
Special thanks to my aunt Darlene Dunnehoo and my parents Bertney and Linda Langley for their help with updating the Koasati for the first three stories - all of them are roughly 100 years old, so it was a collaborative process to modernize the language.
Thank you for listening. Please subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts for updates on future episodes. Share this with a friend who might be interested, too. Atoklo ma - until next time!
