Huge special thank you to Tantoo Cardinal, an inspiration of mine for agreeing to take part in this project, she inspires so many.
Proceeds from this book will be donated to MMIW, Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women Causes.
Most of us are familiar with women such as Laura Secord, Lucy Maud Montgomery. These women were important in Canadian History and were featured in books and school history lessons. But we must remember the history of our land was not made by only settlers; Indigenous women have been shaking things up for generation after generation and have had many key roles in Canadian History. If we do not know their names, it is time we started learning them.
Our sacred women who have been missing and murdered are indeed a Canadian National Crisis.
We must bring about change and awareness.
