The Ark of the Covenant - a sign that the Creator found us...

54. I just want Indigenous Wisdom to have a voice...

I grew up in a mixed culture community (1/3rd Cree Nation, 1/3rd Metis, 1/3rd of European origin). My family origin is a blend of all three, mostly European and part Metis...
Unfortunately I learned ignorance and learned of a sad divide between these nationalities and cultures. My ignorance, though not willful, was a participation in this divide. After high school I took a University course in Nation Studies with a Metis professor. He and his wife taught us by their example of the pride in his culture. He educated me to move away from Ignorance of Indigenous World-view, to understand the just cause that all people(s) have a voice. Moving away from this ignorance lead me to act, so I wrote an article in the daily paper exposing our ignorance of First Nations history in Canada.
