An Honour Story

An Honour Story
Holy Cross Mission Ruins, Wikwemikong

There was a time not too long ago when the drum could only be heard in the distance. The people knew it was out there somewhere…but where? And who were those people banging on the drums - Indians perhaps? What did it mean?

The hunger drives the misplaced spirit of a people to search frantically for the sound of the drum. One by one people begin to find the sound and realize it is their own heart beat.

‘An Honour Story’ celebrates the people who fought hard for the reclamation of our identity - not as ‘Indians’ but as ‘Anishnaabek’ - transforming the sound of the distant drum into the heartbeat of our communities.
