About this event
Join us to share food and listen to stories from Elders, youth, and Knowledge Keepers from the Inuit community of south-eastern Labrador. How can listening to stories help us understand one another in the face of divisive Indigenous recognition policies?
There will be lunch provided at the daytime campus event and refreshments provided at the evening event.
Organized by Dr. Kristina Bidwell (PhD), Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Storytelling, University of Saskatchewan Department of English
