Lii Michif Niiyanaan: We Are Métis launched
On Nov. 16, the First Peoples House came alive with the vibrant spirit of celebration as Indigenous students, staff, faculty, Elders and community members gathered for a special event – the screening of the documentary film, Lii Michif Niiyanaan: We Are Métis.
Métis voices speaking their truth
Media release
The Métis are often referred to as Canada’s “invisible people” – the “ghosts of the land” – whose stories haunt the country’s collective unconscious. Lii Michif Niiyanaan: We Are Métis is a one-hour documentary that addresses this invisibility by shining a new light on the historical and contemporary experience of Métis people in Canada and providing a space for Métis people to share their diverse perspectives on what it means to be Métis today.
Surpassing her hopes and dreams
The Ring
In November, Adrienne Carlson will receive a Master of Social Work at UVic’s fall convocation — far exceeding her own childhood expectations.
New HSD Indigenous student centre
The Ring
Shauna Underwood remembers all too well what it was like to be an Indigenous student at UVic—trying to do well in her studies while also being a single parent of three children and having cultural responsibilities in her community. “I felt like I didn’t have anyone to go to. There were individual instructors who were great, but they are not always on campus or available,” said Underwood, now the Indigenous advisor at the newly opened Indigenous Student Support Centre (ISSC) in the Faculty of Human and Social Development.
