Good morning, all hope you're doing well. Be kind have courage. Every day is a blessing amen.
1992 A Native Vision was the result of a grant from the Canadian Native Arts Foundation to work on my film When Wires Cross which eventually became 7 Fires 4 U Kitchi Manitou, an experimental narrative that came out of the Oka crisis of 1990. it was a difficult film to get done, I was told it was too political at various times, told it would just increase the politics heat at the time. John Kim Bell gave me a bit of money to research so I ended up going to Oka after my work with the Karen Jamieson dance company. They went to Fredericton and I went to Quebec to research all the aspects of the Oka crisis less than two years before the July 11th. standoff so this is the result of that early research, a research video plus sharing a bit about myself in understanding my past and and all that resulted from those early years
