There’s a story behind all of this.

The writing, the paintings, the questions I keep asking. This is where I bring them together.

A place for the work, and the person behind it

Aaniin Boozhoo. I’m T.

I’m a 2Spirit Anishinaabe from Whitefish River First Nation. I write, I paint, and I work on the policies and systems that shape people’s lives. Some of that work comes from my education. A lot of it comes from living through the things those systems are supposed to help with. A little about my path
