Boozhoo! (Hello)
This week, the Ojibwemowin (Ojibwe language) Word of the Week is Goon (snow).
The temperatures have been dropping, and the goon has begun to flurry around. The islands recently got a nice blanket of goon and a preview of the coming season.
It is important not just to see these words but to hear them. Listen and practice saying the words here:

And here is our poster! Finally - been busy over here, sorry it has taken me so long to get it out.
As we welcome the Winter Solstice, with a colder day and darker night, we hold fast to the warmth of community and the return of the sun, illuminating a moment to recognize all that weβve learned, moved through and worked towards in the past year.
We take a moment to honor the natural rhythms of life, apart from the hustle and bustle of man-made stresses and technology. We remember we are all connected, and are just one small yet necessary part of the whole.
In the stillness of this season, we hope you can take a moment to rest and revel in the power and purpose of our movements, keeping a keen eye on a future that continues to uplift Indigenous brilliance, power and regeneration.
We send our prayers to you and your loved ones as you ease into the end of 2022 and step into the new year.
Happy , Relatives.
