MARACLE, Aiyyana

ndn wars are alive, and … well?
Sunday October 22 6 – 9 pm
Trinity Bellwoods Park

Presented by Fado Performance Inc. as part of the IDea series

“The ndn wars: Canada’s Indigenous people remain resistant to the perpetuation of an unjust colonial relationship with ‘the Crown,’ and within Canadian society. The Crown, by its own actions and inactions more so than its words, continues to show its resistance to entering into a new era of an equitable, respectful, peaceful relationship between our cultures and peoples. Canada the meek; Canada, the world’s peacekeeper. Can there be peace in this world while this country remains so willing to, yet again, engage in violent repression of the Indigenous people of this land?”
