In honor of Truth and Reconciliation Day, we gathered at Hill Plain, a proud Indigenous-owned company. We had the privilege of welcoming Stephanie Alexis, First Lady of the Alexis Nakota Sioux Nation, who shared profound insights about the history of Alexis and the lasting impacts of residential schools.
After her enlightening reflections, Janice Alexis, guided us in the art of sewing Indigenous ribbon wear, helping us explore the significance of ribbon skirts and shirts. This was a meaningful and creative way to connect with Indigenous culture.
As we reflect on this important day, let’s continue to recognize the impact of our shared history and commit to the journey of Truth and Reconciliation.
