アイヌとカナダ先住民族は長い間差別と迫害に苦しんできた悲惨な歴史があるばかりではなく、独特な風習と宗教、儀式、踊り等に共通点がある。動画の中のメディスン・ボックスにもそれが如実である。ゴールデンカムイの読者必見。
Ainu, known as the ethnic group in Golden Kamuy, are indigenous people in Hokkaido, Japan. Regardless of DNA and genetic origins, humans tend to share commonalities in belief, mythology, religion, etc., if you look far back enough into history. Ainu and the indigenous people of Canada share the spiritual belief that all things have souls – animals, rocks, trees, mountains. And, they share the practice of harvesting from nature (tree bark, fish skin, animal fur, etc.), and thanking nature for the gift. More will be explored in future videos.
ダウンタウンバンクーバーにあるビル・リードギャラリーを紹介します。ここではかんだ先住民族の芸術を世界レベルに持ち上げた偉大な先住民であるビル・リードの他に衣装、文化、舞踊、音楽を含めたBC州の先住民文化を堪能することが出来ます。現在ではカナダ先住民族とアイヌは交流を深め、お互いを理解し合うように努力しています。
Today, I take you to the Bill Reid Gallery in downtown Vancouver to explore Haida art, dance and song, and Musqueam cedar weaving. Bill Reid brought Haida and Northwest Coast Indigenous art to the world stage, and since then, parallels have been drawn between First Nations people and the art, clothing, culture and music of the Ainu.
