Indigenous History Month Resources
During Indigenous History Month, the Teaching and Learning Centre will be sharing Indigenous resources, to prompt discussion and engagement, and to provide educational opportunities which go beyond surface-level awareness to foster genuine understanding of complex issues like land rights, sovereignty, and the ongoing impacts of colonization.
Week 2: Digital Archives & Virtual Exhibits
Virtual exhibits demonstrate how technology can serve Indigenous communities in reclaiming control over their cultural heritage, bringing dispersed materials back to communities digitally and correcting historical misrepresentations through Indigenous-centered narratives. By highlighting these digital resources during Indigenous History Month, we showcase innovative approaches to cultural preservation and education while supporting Indigenous organizations' efforts to share their stories on their own terms. These platforms provide rich, multimedia learning experiences that complement traditional educational materials and make Indigenous histories and cultures accessible to diverse audiences across geographical boundaries.
