In the fall of 2019 I successfully achieved the Aboriginal Studies Certificate. I was able to plan my BA around this certificate by enrolling primarily in courses that revolved around Aboriginal content. This played a large part in the reason why I came back to school in the first place. I could see the suffering, and the fight on social media surrounding Indigenous history in Canada. I knew that I could not affect change by arguing with people on social media, so I came back to school with a renewed sense of purpose; to educate. To be someone who can confidently teach people in a good way. I have so much hope for where we are going, and what the future brings. I have hope in the next generation. I would love to be a part of their growth, and I believe that education and awareness is the way to do that.
