Mi'kmaq Matters

Caribou were the giver of life and warmth for many nations of Indigenous people, and the Innu honoured this precious creature through intricately made caribou skin coats won by hunters. There are only a few of these coats left; most of them were taken away by colonizers. But after an unexpected discovery earlier this month, we know about at least one more. This week, we hear from Jodie Ashini, cultural and heritage guardian for the Innu Nation, about the unlikely finding. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
