“When everyone around you has a baby, you believe it’s normal—like it’s just easy to have children. Until you experience loss, then you realize how much of a blessing they actually are. You don’t take the experience for granted and become more appreciative of the gift from God.”

History is also about power. In fact, history is mostly about power. It is the story of the powerful and how they became powerful, and then how they use their power to keep them in positions in which they can continue to dominate others. It is because of this relationship with power that we have been excluded, marginalized and ‘Othered’. In this sense, history is not important for indigenous peoples because a thousand accounts of the ‘truth’ will not alter the ‘fact’ that indigenous peoples are still marginal and do not possess the power to transform history into justice.”
