Fifteen eagle feathers were blessed in a traditional Blackfoot ceremony Tuesday .

The feathers will be used for swearing-in ceremonies for new recruits and oaths for affidavits, statements, and other legal documents.

Advocates say the inclusion of feathers is a good thing to do for symbolic reasons, but it doesn’t address the deep-rooted issues between police and their people.
