 NORTH AMERICAN INDIGENOUS CULTURES 

STOP HERE !!   STOP HERE !!   STOP HERE !!

 Statement From Shannon Thunderbird

This website dispels myths, stereotypes and biases by offering "AN ACCURATE" world view from an Indian perspective. Post-European contact has had a profound impact on how we view ourselves, never mind what the outside world thinks of us. As a result the Internet is full of inaccuracies!

I am not here to accuse, you are not here to apologize for our historical relationship. The sins of the fathers cast upon the souls of future generations staggers souls and gets us nowhere. This website simply casts a bright light on people who have been neglected in Canada's overall appreciation & understanding of its citizens. 

You should leave this site with, (a) more informed views of the vibrant Indigenous cultures that continue to thrive all across Turtle Island, (b) the heavy price Native people paid and continue to pay, and (c) a renewed appreciation of the unique role of Aboriginal people in the rich cultural diversity that IS Canada."  

Some pages help heal the heart and elevate the spirit. Others take courage, an open mind and heart to read them to the end. If you do, I sing you an honour song and salute your commitment in wanting to know the 'real' story.

"When our path took us to yours, we shall feel your voice and your energy for times yet to come. You've reminded us of our strengths and reminded us too of those memories stored within us, within our collective body and spirit. Chi miigwech."

 "Thank you so much for the performance at our Canadian Symposium for Arts and Learning this week. The audience was just wowed by your performance, and we so appreciate it!" (S. Robertson, Canadian Network for Arts and Learning).
