Stories through art have been the most impactful in my own life. #llcu322

My culture isn't an avenue for you to advocate your own agenda.

My own awareness of me being Mohawk for a long time was
1) I don't pay tax
2) don't pay do school

It is not just to force an indigenous way of life on all of Canada. That's what the colonizers did in the first place.#firewithfire #llcu322

I am a Mohawk student largely uneducated in my own culture. Something is wrong.

[llcu322bmaracle @llcu322bmaracle]

Sovereign nations were destabilized by Canada, now it's Canada's job to restabilize these nations so they can be sovereign once again.

What is the difference between culture and religion?

In my opinion, the first step in reconciliation is recognizing that colonialism still exists in Canada. #llcu322

The Mohawk are not English, but our signs are. #doesntMakeSense #llcu322

[llcu322bmaracle @llcu322bmaracle]

Language is the beginning of every culture and it's absence is a culture's demise. #llcu322

"materialist scholars recon the semiotic value of sacred objects but fail to experience their symbolic value." - Garneau #llcu322

[llcu322bmaracle @llcu322bmaracle]

There has to be some religious involvement in reconciliation as the church was a primary perpetrator in colonization. #llcu322

[llcu322bmaracle @llcu322bmaracle]

The first results should start to come in shortly... https://t.co/tIb5VyScMR via @cbcnews

I guess reconciliation is "not forgetting the slaughter"and choosing to work beyond everything that has occurred. #Curratingdifficultactions

The microphone symbolizes the healing power of speech in creating a transactional sphere of public memory. #LLCU322

[llcu322bmaracle @llcu322bmaracle]

Orestes speaks of "never forgetting the slaughter". Can there be an effective healing process with vivid memories of the past?

[llcu322bmaracle @llcu322bmaracle]

Expressing emotion is critical in reconciliation,however emotion is difficult to express. This is why art is important in the reconciliation

[llcu322bmaracle @llcu322bmaracle]

Black-on-black or crime-against-humanity, should have this distinction mattered? Both are crimes in humanity which should be enough #llcu322
