  • “Strength from Stardust” – comes from the idea that we come all come from the stars. Humans, plants and animals are made up of the same material stars are made of. We are all connected and we get our strength from that connection. Listen to Susan and her Mi’kiju (grandmother) Serena talk to fellow Indigenous peoples about our connection to the stars, and more. Some themes highlighted throughout are: Dreamtime, Ceremonies, Wampum Belts, Petroglyphs, Sacred Sites, Our Relatives and Language.
