Discussion today on Storytelling as it relates to Canadian history. First Nations People of Canada were banned by The Indian Act from sharing their stories, speaking their language and passing on their culture. We discuss the impact that has today and how the Point of View of the Storyteller is so important.

The NCRA Equity Committee has a subcommittee that is a reading group and gathers every 6-8 weeks to discuss member selected readings.

Have a listen as Cousin Awd and FFExpress host Courtney Harrop have a catch up (kind of like a coffee Break) and Cousin Awd breaks down the Evening of Film, Conversation and Music event coming up on January 31st:
Local Musician Larry Hanson, Nanaimo based musicians Willie Thrasher and Linda Saddleback, actor Eric Wilson, voice of APTN’s new First Nations superhero cartoon, Kagagi, and Kevin “Sipreano” Howes, the curator of the hit collection Native North America (Vol. 1): Aboriginal Folk, Rock, and Country 1966-1985, will engage in the courageous conversation considering why the art of First Nations People were not supported in Media historically and what has changed today - if anything.
