Resilience / Survivance / Care with Lauren Jimerson

September 6, 6pm

In consideration of our path forward from the experience of Indian residential school trauma, it is imperative that we examine the role of resilience, survivance and care that is needed along the way. The ability to adapt in effort to survive horrible acts is no small feat, but to continue to survive as an act of resistance takes a profound amount of strength. The ability to be resilient and keep surviving in resistance demands care in ways that we do not typically think about providing. We will visit all of these topics, how they connect with each other and how they can promote restoring our loved ones, ourselves and our communities.

This event is organized alongside the exhibition: RG Miller: Tsi Non:we Entewaha’hara’ne / Our Path Forward. Read more about the exhibition HERE
