The Blanket Exercise with Elder Deb will be hosted at the Mi'kmaw Native Friendship Centre on June 10, which falls within National Indigenous History Month.
We require a minimum of 25 members to attend for this interactive workshop to offer its true impact.
Educational, emotional, and powerful, The Blanket Exercise uses blankets arranged on the floor to represent the land. Participants step into the roles of First Nations, Inuit, and later Metis peoples to understand how colonization impacts those who were here before settlers arrived.
