Hey Squatchable friends! We stumbled upon an amazing video from YouTube channel Sackaney Art by Wachi Medowin- Judy Sackaney, featuring Judy Sing and Wayne McKenzie. The video, titled "Bigfoot Will Heal Us - Through Art & Wahkotowin - 'Ochiskicho Katukaheykano" 2025 Conference- Day 1," is a must-watch for all Bigfoot enthusiasts! Judy Sing, a traditional grandmother from the treaty territory, organizes the conference and shares her experiences with the Sasquatch society. Wayne McKenzie, a former chief, talks about his life journey and the power of song and drums in healing. The video opens with Judy Sing reminding people about how spirit guides us to start things, and she introduces Wayne McKenzie. Wayne shares his Creek and Scottish heritage, his role as a former chief, and his teachings about honesty. He also talks about his 30-year experience as a drum teacher and the healing power of songs and drums. Wayne then shares a story about his former student, one of the best in North America, who he supported at a round dance in Sarnia. He also talks about the oral tradition and the importance of recognizing the spirit that connects with the drum and vibration during singing. The highlight of the video is when Wayne sings a song to open the conference. The song, called "Where are you?," is a spiritual quest for charity. Wayne also shares another song, called "Sad Song," which he used to sing to his nephew going through his time of drugs and alcohol. The song helped his nephew talk and is now a breast cancer role model. Wayne also shares a story about his nephew helping a native patient who overdosed on crystal meth. The patient was unconscious for three weeks, but after Wayne's nephew sang a song, the patient took some breath on his own and was able to walk down to thank him a week later. This video is a powerful reminder of the healing power of songs and drums in our lives. We encourage all our readers to watch the video and share their thoughts with us!
