THEME:
~Sending a Message to Future Generations~
"Boozhoo inawemaaganak (greetings relatives). When we looked into the eyes of our elders, we knew they had done the same, repeating for countless generations into our collective cultural past. We heard the stories told around sacred fires, and pondered the images painted or sketched on canyon walls and birch bark scrolls. As we read the treaties and history books, they told us what was missing from the pages. They carried precious gifts in their hearts and their minds, memories intended to be shared with future generations. It was our responsibility to learn them, protect them and send them along to you. We hope you receive these gifts with great respect and honor the sacrifices made in order to ensure that you live mino-bimaadiz (a good life)."
