Bimaadzwin Celebrating National Indigenous People's Month
Honouring Our Heritage, Our Future
At Bimaadzwin, we are deeply committed to advancing the sovereignty, health, and wellbeing of Indigenous nations. In line with this commitment, we are proud to join in the celebration of National Indigenous Peoples Month, a month dedicated to honouring the rich and diverse cultures, histories, and contributions of Indigenous peoples in Canada.
National Indigenous Peoples Day, observed annually on June 21, is a time of celebration and unity. It's an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of Indigenous peoples' cultural heritage, traditions, and continued resilience in the face of adversity.
On this day, Bimaadzwin encourages everyone to reflect on the integral role that Indigenous peoples have played in shaping the fabric of our nation. Their histories and knowledge systems, their respect for the land and the environment, and their innovative and resilient spirit, have greatly contributed to our shared heritage.
While we celebrate, we also recognize that this day is a reminder of the work that lies ahead. We remember the hardships endured by Indigenous communities, from the injustices of the past to the ongoing struggles for recognition and equality. As we honour Indigenous cultures, we also reaffirm our commitment to advancing Indigenous rights and self-determination.
Bimaadzwin, is passionate about supporting Indigenous communities in realizing their visions of sovereignty and wellness. We stand with Indigenous communities in their pursuit of a future shaped by their own priorities, goals, and traditions.
On National Indigenous Peoples Day, we invite all Canadians to join us in celebration and reflection. We encourage everyone to learn more about the rich cultures and histories of Indigenous peoples, and to engage in respectful and meaningful dialogues.
Here are a few ways you can participate:
- Learn about Indigenous cultures: Take some time to read Indigenous literature, listen to Indigenous music, or watch films by Indigenous filmmakers.
- Support Indigenous businesses: Consider purchasing products or services from Indigenous-owned businesses.
- Engage in dialogue: Participate in events, forums, or discussions focused on Indigenous issues.
- Advocate for change: Speak up for Indigenous rights and contribute to efforts to advance Indigenous sovereignty and wellness.
On this National Indigenous Peoples Day, let us celebrate and honour the vibrant cultures, histories, and contributions of Indigenous peoples. Let us also reaffirm our commitment to a future where Indigenous rights, cultures, and knowledge are respected and celebrated every day.
In the spirit of reconciliation and unity, the entire team at Bimaadzwin wish everyone a meaningful and enriching National Indigenous Peoples Day. Let us continue our journey together, towards a future of mutual respect, understanding, and prosperity.
