“I’m a Little Too Rebellious for That”: A Conversation with Joi T. Arcand and Winona Wheeler

byJoi T. Arcand, Chris Lee and Winona Wheeler

Chris Lee, Joi T. Arcand and Winona Wheeler sit down to discuss what it means to reclaim agency over a history that incorrectly credits figures like James Evans with the invention of Cree syllabic writing. Arcand’s clever political signage and Wheeler’s careful historiography reveal an aboriginal history that has been contorted by colonial institutions.
