This week's #FrybreadFriday is a story spun by Ojibwe musician Keith Secola. At the 2nd Annual Crystal Shawanda Homecoming Concert, Keith, with the help of some audience participation, tells a story of a fry bread ban, underground fry bread gatherings and the secret ingredient in Anishinabe fry bread. The tale gradually turns into a song and showcases some fantastic dancing by one of the kids on stage. It's all around lovely.
