Gord Downie’s work to spread the story of Chanie Wenjack has been an spread across Canadian School’s and acted as an important piece of the puzzle in terms of understanding the horror of residential schools. The Downie Wenjack Fund is a non profit organization that works to spread this story, The Secret Path, and to bring light to many other indigenous topics. One of the things the organization does that I would like to highlight is their Artist Ambassador Program. The organization works to bring in Indigenous, and non Indigenous artists into schools across Canada to help open a discussion about reconciliation. I think that this initiative does an incredible job of both opening the discussion of residential schools, and also amplifying the voices of Indigenous artists. The website provides information about all of these Artist Abassadors, I look forward to diving in to learn more.
