He Talks to Birds: A Cohanzick Lenape Legend

By Tyrese Gould Jacinto

The creation of my Lenape stories is an art from the heart and mindset that forms from deep within. We indigenous people of New Jersey are often portrayed as something from the past when we are alive and thriving. As an artist, it is always an honor to be able to share my talents with the world because if we do not share them with you, then you will not remember us.
The importance in my life is tradition and teaching where we come from to provide a familiarity as to the why. Why do we do the things we do? Why do we look the way we do? Why do we celebrate the way we do? Who are we? Without my stories and tradition, there is no answer to the questions of why. Without answers, we wander aimlessly through time without a sense of understanding and acceptance of our inner beauty.
This is the beginning, a new record for history.
