Tune in for an conversation with the Indigenous rights and anti-globalization activist about the history of Indigenous resilience and the European colonization of the Americas, from Christopher Columbus’s invasion to the more recent Six Nations land reclamation in Ontario. His strong yet simple narrative, paired with evocative illustrations that narrate traumas of the past, resonates deeply with the fighting spirit of those battling the ongoing resistance today.
