GRANDMOTHER DRUM COMES TO EARTHDANCE
The only drum of its kind, the seven foot diameter, crystal inlaid, GrandMother Drum was a vision of indigenous grandmothers and built by many hands of the multicultural Alaskan community in 2000. GrandMother Drum is traveling the world as an international symbol of the Universal Heart that connects all races and all cultures of the human family. Immediately after her birth in 2001, GrandMother Drum was invited to be the very heartbeat of Alaska's largest human rights march, the "We the People" Alaska Native Subsistence March. The project then launched its first Ring of Fire World Tour traveling over 15,000 miles throughout Australia in 2002 and 2003 sharing ing culture, promoting cross-cultural awareness, healing and reconciliation. The GrandMother Drum is a living, beating symbol from the hearts of the grandmothers that we are all one people, that the earth is our one country, that love is stronger than fear and that peace and freedom are the birthrights of all humanity.
