In my family, there are stories that Kiwana Parker’s mother was part of my Mother’s Mother’s family and on my father’s side, his people emigrated to Quebec from Paris in the mid 1600s and may have intermarried with the Original peoples who lived there (first!). Regardless of whether these stories are true, I believe that that anyone who loves Mother Earth and hears her speak, shares a common bond with all of our Native Peoples. When I hear stories of Native languages dying and sacred lands being taken from the people, it hurts in my heart. I would like to know what I can do to help. Do you have any suggestions for me to help stop the priceless culture and rich heritage of the Native ?people from being lost?
