Stories From The Animals at The Institute for American Indian Studies


*The event has already taken place on this date: Sat, 10/19/2024
Etuaptmumk is a Mi’kmaw saying that translates to “Two-Eyed Seeing.” This concept refers to learning how to see the strengths of Indigenous knowledge from one eye and the strengths of Western knowledge from the other. Join White Memorial’s Environmental Educator Colleen Harrak and IAIS Educational Outreach Ambassador Darlene Kascak (Schaghticoke Tribal Nation) for a two eyed seeing look at local woodlands animals and the lessons they teach. White Memorial will bring several live animal ambassadors while Darlene will share traditional Native American stories about these animals.
