Speakers of Truth is an ongoing series of ‘kitchen table’ talks led by Indigenous activists, protectors and educators covering topics essential to Truth and Reconciliation; this month’s event will focus on the complex truth about the history and the ongoing legacy of Federal Indian Day Schools.
“Pretendian” is a term used to describe someone who falsely claims Indigenous identity, often for personal or professional gain. Join us for a Speakers of Truth conversation about “Pretendians or Indigenous Fraudsters” and the harm that they bring to the Indigenous community.
