Do you have to visit the reservations to learn? Do you have to be a registered member to learn? Are there any elders who know thee ancient Blackfoot language if so how can I meet them?
@ siksika, that definitely came off as rude. This person did not even mention anything about being Blackfoot or Native at all. They’re simply asking if they have to be Blackfoot to learn, which you do not have to be. Anybody can learn.
There's a Museum here on Siksika Nation, called Blackfoot Crossing Historical Park that you may find will help you learn more about Siksika Culture & Language. You would have to call ahead if you would like to arrange a tour guide with a Siksika Member, you could possibly request a Elder to accompany you on the Tour Guide.
THANK YOU IT WAS WONDERFUL TO HEAR THE STORY IN ITS NATIVE LANGUAGE
