Presenting Our Presence (POP)
Presenting Our Presence (POP)
Florence Glanfield, Vice-Provost (Indigenous Programming & Research), and Cindy Gaudet (assistant professor and Canada Research Chair in Métis Relations & Land-based Wellness, Campus Saint-Jean) discuss how POP emerged from Florence’s weekly Virtual Teas during the pandemic.
