Written by Laurence Depelteau-McEvoy and Michelle L. Gerrior, this exhibition summarizes and depicts each’s episode’s main topics, including Indigenous governance and leadership, the land and it’s interconnectedness with Indigenous languages and identity, cultural safety in the education, health and social services sectors, the legal traditions, the right to self-determination, and the spiritual philosophies of some First Nations.

This exhibition fosters openness and dialogue between nations and shines a light on the various Indigenous demands in order to better understand them.
