Join us for a performance in celebration of Native American Heritage Month with the Black Hawk Performance Company. The Black Hawk Performance Company seeks to honor the ground we dance on, Mother Earth and the many tribes who have made Illinois their home. Many tribes like the Ojibwe, Odawa and Potawatomi and numerous others have been here for thousands of years and are still here now. Most American Indian people, 70%, live in urban areas like Chicago now. The most famous American Indian leader of historic times was the great Sauk Chief Black Hawk. His name comes from the great black hawks that we see all over the state. We honor both his name and our brother the hawk when we say these words.
The Black Hawk Performance Company is a sponsored by the American Indian Association of Illinois.
