What happens when culture is taken away
A visit to Six Nations of the Grand River, Canada's largest First Nations reserve, taught me that you cannot celebrate world cultures without understanding what it costs when culture is deliberately erased. A reflection on the Haudenosaunee, the Mohawk Institute, and what we owe our children.

Darkness is just where the light hasn’t reached yet
A child pointing at a stranger on the bus is not prejudice. It's curiosity. Why I believe children are born curious, not fearful, and how screens quietly train that out of them.
