Some of the profiles included are:Indigenous poet E. Pauline Johnsonacclaimed novelist Tommy Orangebrave warrior Standing Bearpoet and activist Rita JoeWith each profile accompanied by rich visuals, from archival photos to contemporary art, Ours to Tell brilliantly spotlights Indigenous life, past and present, through an Indigenous lens.
