Why we say "Indigenous" instead of "Aboriginal"
As we prepare to recognize and celebrate the numerous accomplishments and efforts of Indigenous Peoples and Indigenous individuals here in Canada, we at Animikii want to think critically about the language we use. Language is important and it frames the ways in which we think about the world. By intentionally calling out the antiquated language, we hope to encourage more Canadians to consider the ways in which they think about Indigenous Peoples in this country.
