Читать книгу Voices from the Skeena - Robert Budd - Страница 5

Through interviews and audio recordings, CBC radio producer Imbert Orchard and sound technician Ian Stephen have provided us with a window into the past, allowing British Columbians to speak for themselves across time and place. Visit http://memoriestomemoirs.ca/skeena to immerse yourself in the original sounds of the stories in this book by listening to the speakers narrate their own experiences while you follow along with the text and art.

Among many First Nations, a feather is used in talking circles. When people sit together to communicate, the feather is passed from one person to the next. When a person is handed the feather, it is their time to speak and for others to listen. The feather symbol on the following pages indicates the beginning and end of an audio clip, as these voices from the past take their turns speaking into our present. We encourage you to listen along.
