"We don't need any more sorrys. We have closets full of sorrys." - Maria Campbell

The reading and understanding of Indigenous literatures is crucial to Indigenous-settler relations in this country. Indigenous voices have important messages to convey and nowhere is this more apparent than in Indigenous Children's literature. Children are at the centre of the circle in every single Indigenous community. Join Nancy Cooper as she discusses the importance of Indigenous Children's literature in Canada today. 

Nancy is a Two-Spirited woman from the Chippewas of Rama First Nation. Born and raised throughout Northern Ontario, Nancy currently lives in Toronto with her family. She is the author of two children's books, The Trading Tree and Biindigen! Amik Says Welcome.

This event is part of the Halton Hills Lecture Series. Tickets are available through the John Elliott Theatre Box Office.
