VSO Indigenous Council – The Path Forward
The featured Indigenous language song for Music Class this year is in Mohawk. The song, commissioned by CBC Music and the library partnerships program at CBC, was created after a workshop with youth at the Fort Erie Public Library. Juno-nominated, two-spirit artist Shawnee Kish partnered with her sister Kristi Talbot, an early childhood educator, and guitarist Stu Weinberg to craft the elementary-level song with easy-to-learn lyrics and a memorable melody. The sheet music is available here.
