Being an Indigenous woman is not synonymous with struggle.
I refuse it.
I declare sweet, unapologetic, Indigenous joy over my life. We have suffered enough.
Thank you to our summer visitors at the Lodge, @UAlberta President Bill Flanagan and his team and @UAlbertaLaw Dean Barb Billingsley for coming into the Lodge . We appreciated the chance to share our vision for wahkohtowin and law with you, and imagine how we can grow together!
Hey 👋

We'll be working with Standing Together & other amazing thinkers @usask , @uvic & @UWindsor.
Today and every day, the National Indigenous Law Students Association honours and remembers our missing and murdered relatives, mothers, sisters, and friends. We wear red to show our solidarity with our relations across Turtle Island and demand justice. No more stolen sisters.
As another incredible year wraps up, @wahkohtowin is already hard at work getting ready for next year. They recently gathered for a planning retreat, and we can't wait to see how this passionate and dedicated group of people continues to move the Lodge's work forward!
