I am ... Juliette Blackhawk


Lac Seul member Juliette Blackhawk is an Ojibwe language teacher and education assistant at Sacred Heart Elementary School in Sioux Lookout. She is one of those people who have taken responsibility for teaching and sharing the culture of the Anishnawbeg. As such, she is widely respected in the community. Aside from teaching the language, Juliette is a ceremony keeper, conducting sweat lodges and full moon ceremonies. Gentle and calm, she radiates warmth and kindness, evident in the images we captured.
