My mind will need time to let it all soak in.
The Indigenous Public Relations, if anything we strive to give and learn a clear concise voice.
We are guests in the territory of Ohsweken, the people of Six Nations. Most examples in conversation leans towards situations that are in their back yard. Currently there is news about "Protestors stop work on housing project" from The Expositor.
I think that in most cases when it does come to First Nation communities in the news, so much is unsaid, or unclear, or over looked. I hear the frustration in my classmates voices, there isn't an example that I can relate to. My community in the past decade has taken a painfully obvious mute stance on what is actually being released to media, community, public community, that when something is shared, its shocking. I have been made quite aware on what I can, and can not say, which I hope to change, for my own communities sake.
