Last week, Theatre Alberta was pleased to host Citadel Theatre’s Indigenous Associate Artist and the co-founder and Artistic Director of Alberta Aboriginal Performing Arts‘ Christine Sokaymoh Frederick.
Christine spoke with the students at Artstrek about the lived experiences of the Aboriginal and Metis peoples’ of Alberta from the Indian Act of 1876 through the First World War where Vimy is set and also into contemporary Canadian culture and issues.
She spoke about shifting legal, social, and political realities faced by Indigenous people through history.
We would like to thank Christine for joining us at Artstrek 2017!
