Hadih! (Hello), my name is Desiree Louis. I am a second year in the daculty of arts majoring in Indigenous Studies with a minor in Law and Society. I have a marine biology background from my studies in Northern B.C. As well have worked in rural areas in the northern archipelago, central america (more specifically Peru and Bolivia.) I have an infinity for learning about indigenous culture due to my cultural lineage. And, am excited to be researching this subject as growing up I always felt my culture under represented in academic settings. I am interested in the differences and similarities in indigenous cosmologies as well as the differences in post colonial worlds. I am First Nations from what we call the Luksilyoo Territory in what is currently called Northern B.C. As well as Cree-Metis from Northern Alberta. I look forward to learning more about popular culture in latin america as well as learning more about studying media critically.
