The Art of Sovereignty

Our stories define who we are. When Indigenous cultures were outlawed across Canada, our voices were silenced. When our stories went underground to survive, others tried to define us. But it was our artists who brought our stories back for the world to see and hear. Join hosts Chris Beaver and Shelby Lisk as they explore the lives of eight First Nations artists whose art reclaims our voices and identities in a country that tried to silence them.  Ontario Hubs are made possible by the Barry and Laurie Green Family Charitable Trust & Goldie Feldman.
