Listen Now.
Begin at the beginning, or start wherever you like — our hope is that you feel invited into an ongoing conversation that we’ve recorded here. However, as you listen, know that conversations like these are happening ever day, in every school, administrative office or institution where Indigenous voices are present. We hope that they spark conversations in your own life, in your own district, in your own classroom…
With warmth, welcome.
