Description
An Invitation for your presence to "Remember, Honor and Celebrate the lives of our Women Warriors - past and present".
Remembering who these women are and to acknowledge their work in the community and what they stood for. As an Aboriginal woman many of us grew up without having these women role models and heroes in our lives, no one to look up to. It's our responsibility to ensure that the Women are always remembered and that the stories and the songs are always carried on.
We can't just forget anymore or let others forget and talk quietly amongst ourselves about what amazing women we have, women that have dedicated their lives and that they are always remembered.
To honour the spirit of the women, to remember that the big hearts that they have for the children and the community and the wisdom to think about others, even the unborn.
We'll have an evening of speakers, musicians, artists, singers. Little Hawk will be performing and other talented friends, please keep posted!
Come join us to remember and celebrate.
I will post an agenda and more info to come...
Absolutely no alcohol/drugs allowed!
