  1. #IndigenousGardens in #Ontario

    " #Indigenous gardens and other special places are designed for people to gather, learn, heal, reflect and celebrate the diverse and rich #FirstNations, #Inuit and #Métis cultures.

    "From the banks of the St. Marys River in #SaultSainteMarie and #LakeSuperior in #ThunderBay to downtown #Toronto, learn about the important role of Indigenous gardens in honouring #IndigenousCulture and knowledge in Ontario.

    "Traditional plants, including the four sacred medicines — #sage, #tobacco, #cedar and #sweetgrass — are often integral to Indigenous gardens.

    - Sage is often used in smudging, where the smoke is washed over participants to cleanse away negative energy.
    - Cedar is a protective medicine that can be used as cedar tea, cedar baths or hung in the home to guard against bad elements.
    - Sweetgrass is a kindness medicine. It reminds us to be good to others, the world and ourselves.
    - Tobacco is a relationship medicine offered to start things: before a harvest, before a hunt, before asking for assistance from an Elder or to start the day. It opens up communication and ushers in good energy.

    "Learn more about Indigenous gardens in Ontario and their significance. This is a short list of the many Indigenous gardens across the province. Please respect these Indigenous spaces, as not all gardens are open to the public."

  3. “I honour our ancestral artists and their art practices while also trying to bring in something new so it's fresh for me as well as for the audiences. I try to bridge both of those experiences intentionally.”

  7. Aufklärungen! Metis! Von Wolfgang Sofsky

    Auch die Meeresgöttin Metis, Tochter des Okeanos und der Tethys, war eine Meisterin der Verwandlung. Die „Sinnende“ galt als Inbegriff des Scharfsinns und der Weisheit.

  8. Cover reveal. 13 Moons, a middle grade historical novel about my great grandfather will be released this fall from Reycraft Books. I love the cover by Justin Kewaquado. Thirteen-year-old George is caught between two worlds—his métis fur-trader father's European ways and his Ojibwe mother's distant homeland. George makes a daring decision to run away from home, stow away on a riverboat, and travel to find the mother he barely remembers. #middlegrade #childrensbooks #bookstodon #metis
