- Vivian Garner Cottrell is a Cherokee National Treasure for basketweaving. We accompany her to a canebrake as she gathers the river cane she needs to turn raw nature into beautifully woven traditional baskets.
I am quarter Cherokee. I love to see the Cherokee traditions and skills kept alive. Please continue the beautiful work you do
I am beginning to learn about canebrakes and how important they were to native people in the Southeast. Thank you for sharing your love of basket weaving. Your work is beautiful!
What wonderful art. That river cane is an impressive plant and I enjoyed seeing you work it into the strips. I've got no basis for digging Bloodroot, so I sure appreciate seeing someone work with it, and so well, too. It makes such beautiful colors. Thank you.
I've always called it bamboo!
I am Lumbee and Saponi. Thank you for this teaching, I learned one time but I forgot.
Watching this makes me think my family was more Cherokee than I thought. We did similar things as young children before my grandpa moved houses. Now walnuts aren’t as common
Man i live in enc and our river cane is small- reckon why we used dogwood shoots
