In this episode, Barbara Nolan, Anishinabek Nation Anishinaabemowin Language Commissioner, shares a short Anishinaabemowin language lesson about the meaning of Bemaadizijig Ganoonindwaa, the name she gifted to this podcast.
We then hear from three Anishinabek Nation leaders, who introduce us to the Anishinabek Nation and its governance structure. They share how our leadership is guided by our traditional governance systems, including the Anishinaabe Chi-Naaknigewin, the Ngo Dwe Waangizid Anishinaabe and our Doodem system.
They also explain how the Union of Ontario Indians (UOI) is the secretariat corporation of the Anishinabek Nation and how the UOI supports our Nation’s political advocacy work.
