Indigenous youth share postcard series at Ped Day
One of the workshops at Dawson鈥檚 2023 Ped Day on Oct. 13 was Indigenous Youth Perspectives: Community Care and Practical Strategies, Bettering the Student Experience.
Two young people who are part of the presented a , one of the tools they have created to express themselves and to get people thinking and discussing.
This group has been meeting online and in person for a few years. S茅bastien Lamarre-Tellier, a medical student at McGill University, is Innu and a member of the network鈥檚 youth advisory committee. Sebastien told that they have been 鈥渃oming together to share our cultures, be visible and make some noise to show that our cultures are alive and growing.鈥�
The postcard that stood out for many at Dawson was one with an image of two people in a canoe at the centre. The centre is bright and focused on Nature with positive words emphasized. The city and negative elements are there but in the background.
S茅bastien said that young Indigenous people 鈥渘eed to express ourselves.鈥� He also said they are looking for a guide in a teacher, someone 鈥渢o walk in the forest with them.鈥� The image of the canoe has the elder or the teacher in the back helping to steer.
Visit the link to see all the postcards, which can lead to great conversations and rich reflections.
