Have to find an Ojibwe sacred story to translate into my own words and record me saying them. Problem is, at lot of example stories are summaries/not actual stories or have Ojibwe translation already (which means, as my teacher says, the work is already done)

There are miscellaneous texts and recordings in Ojibwe like this available online: https://diglib.amphilsoc.org/islandora/ ... ook-1941-1 Whether or not they contain legends I can't tell you since they are untranslated.
