The Wind is produced by me, Fil Corbitt.
This season was made with support from the Google Podcasts Creator Program through PRX. And by our patrons. If you’d like to support the show, head to Patreon.com/Thewind and set up a monthly donation.

Thank you to Shawn Yazzi, Michael King, Dylan Jahr, Iron Mountain, Little Bear, Bad Soul, and Wocus Muffin for speaking with me for this episode. And thanks to Bethany Sam, Eleanor Tullock, and to Henry Rondeau who provided some of the audio of the drum groups. You can find him on youtube at “Yoyoyo itshendo”. He’s got a bunch of powwow videos if you wanna check them out, and I’ll post some, along with photos, links and more at TheWind.org.

Thanks for being here for Year 3 of The Wind. We’ll have a guest episode and epilogue soon. And to all of the patrons, THANK YOU. You’ve seriously made this thing much easier to sustain, and I am deeply grateful.
