SUMMARY:Story Pole: Indigenous Veterans
DESCRIPTION:The Marion Cumming Lecture Series Presents Story Pole: Indigenous Veterans \nGuided by First Nations Elders\, this documentary explores the story of Indigenous veterans and how they are remembered today. This film begins with the story pole carved by Mungo Martin\, Henry Hunt and David Martin\, raised in 1956 at MEE-qan (Beacon Hill Park). The mystery surrounding the war memorial plaque dedicated to Indigenous veterans\, found at the base of the pole\, serves as a gateway to a powerful story of truth and reconciliation. This film weaves Royal Roads Military College\, a family of the Tsawout Nation\, and the Holten Canadian War Cemetery\, in the Netherlands. The film is a production of the War Heritage Research Initiative at Royal Roads University \, led by Professor Dr. Geoffrey Bird. This film project was guided by Indigenous Elders of several First Nations.
