Until now, our shared history has been written from a Eurocentric, colonialist standpoint. In this series, Indigenous Peoples take back the talking stick to tell their own side of the story. Innu poet Marie-Andrée Gill sets out to reconcile past and present by reclaiming 11 words whose meanings have been twisted by centuries of colonization. Together, mamu en innu aimun, let’s begin to decolonize our minds, one word at a time.
