White Memorial Conservation Center and The Institute for American Indian Studies presents: Stories from the Animals

“Etuaptmumk” is a Mi’kmaw saying that translates to “Two-Eyed Seeing.” This concept refers to learning how to see the strengths of Indigenous knowledge from one eye and the strengths of Western knowledge from the other. Join Environmental Educator Colleen Harrak from White Memorial and Educational Outreach Ambassador Darlene Kascak (Schaghticoke Tribal Nation) from the Institute for American Indian Studies for a two-eyed seeing look at local woodland animals and the lessons they teach. Colleen will show several live animal ambassadors while Darlene shares traditional Native American stories about these animals.
