On this week’s episode of Roots and Hoots, host Gordon Spence is pleased to be joined by Indigenous educator and Cree scholar Verna J. Kirkness. Verna is a distinguished educator whose passion for teaching has led to her many accolades and publications. Verna has written nine books, including her most recent biography Creating Space: My Life and Work in Indigenous Education. Verna is the recipient of both the Order of Canada and the Order of Manitoba, though her most esteemed honours have been the many eagle feathers she has received. During their conversation, Verna and Gordon discuss Verna’s career, her proudest accomplishments, and most earnest wishes for the revitalization of Indigenous languages.
