Companion to: Spirit Bear: fishing for knowledge.
Spirit Bear: Honouring Memories, Planting Dreams' is the latest addition to the award-winning picture book series written by Order of Canada recipient Cindy Blackstock and illustrated by Amanda Strong. Blackstock is a member of the Gitksan First Nation, while Strong is a Michif artist currently based out of the unceded Coast Salish territory also known as Vancouver, BC.
Spirit Bear is on his way home from a sacred ceremony when he meets Jake, a friendly dog, with a bag full of paper hearts attached to wood stakes. Jake tells Spirit Bear that school children and residential school survivors will plant the hearts when a big report on residential schools called the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC for short) is shared. The TRC will have Calls to Action so we can all help end the unfairness and make sure this generation of First Nations, M�etis, and Inuit children grow up healthy and proud!
