Loretta Parenteau-English is an Indigenous Black Foot Elder from Piikni Nation. Through her stories and teaching, listeners gain a new appreciation for the wisdom and resilience of the First Nations people and the importance of passing on culture to the next seven generations.
Loretta Honors traditional ceremonies in many ways, such as through dance, storytelling and the vital connection, a relationship between an elder and the youth. Throughout her life, Loretta has been a leader and advocate, as well as an important mentor to young people, helping to pass on the knowledge and wisdom of her elders to the next generation. She is a true inspiration to all who know her, especially her grandchildren.
So, it wasn't a surprise when I asked Brett English, one of our podcast participants, who he would like to interview, and he didn't skip a beat when he responded. My Nama. This is Brett English and Dakota Olson's interview with Bret’s rock star Nama, Loretta Parenteau-English.
