I am grateful to live and work on the traditional lands of the Haudenosaunee, Anishinabewaki ᐊᓂᔑᓈᐯᐗᑭ, Mississauga, and Wendake-Nionwentsïo peoples, lands that were supposed to have been protected by the Williams Treaties of 1923. To learn more about Indigenous culture and community in Canada, and about how to support Indigenous causes, please check out the following resources: Unreserved and Telling Our Twisted Histories (podcasts), The Gord Downie & Chanie Wenjack Fund, and the Ontario Native Literacy Coalition. To support the survivors of Indian Residential Schools in Canada, please visit the Indian Residential School Survivors Society.
