Liberals called. Wanted me to up my donation. I shared how I might be cancelling my support all together considering Carney took billons from Indigenous to fund his new economy. Everyone prosperous in Canada except Indigenous, I guess. What did Sinclair say about our most vulnerable people?

As Indigenous people, we know what it feels like not to fit in and that applies to the pages of a fictional story as much as real life.

But here are my thoughts on Indigenous people identifying with "Native Brush Strokes" by Antoinette Godin.

I have long encouraged Indigenous peoples to write. But after reading "Native Brush Strokes" by Antoinette Godin, I now see why Indigenous authors of FICTION stories are needed to!

Here's why I think Indigenous stories matter now more than ever.

I love it when authors reach out and ask me to review their books, especially Indigenous Authors.

Antoinette Godin (possible distant relative of my Mom and therefore ME) reached out and asked me to review her book so in this video, I do just that.

So, let's talk about it!

Nothing is better medicine to my spirit and soul than hearing the words of a non-Indigenous person who gets it, someone who owns their privilege, owns the truth and in this case, is even BRAVE ENOUGH to attempt to educate others.

Real resistance isn’t loud, it’s living fully, authentically and on your own terms. Give students the space to define that for themselves. #IndigenousEducation #EmpowerYouth #CulturalResilience

Today, a message for Indigenous specifically (and then one for non-Indigenous Canadians).

Let's talk Conservative politics.
Let's talk Healthcare in Canada.
Let's talk Resource Development.

Because what is happening now is NOT working.

Over the last 5 years, I had the honour of helping Julia Gibson create "Copper Stone - A Glimpse of Blood Memory".

As part of launching the book, we did a series of events. In today's episode of WMT, Julia and I talk about our experiences at those events.

What a week! September 30th, September 28th (I explain in the video) and then the Thunder Bay Police Services report about the Thunder Bay Landfill.

This video is straight from my heart, tears included.

I hope you take the time to listen and learn.

Anyone who knows me, knows that decolonizing my life and work is a HUGE part of who I am and what I do.

But what does decolonization have to do with video creation?

Watch and learn, then feel free to comment (especially from other Indigenous folks).
