Telling Indigenous Stories and the New Normal - post COVID-19
This unprecedented year and the COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately impacted women and shone a new light on racial injustice and violence, as well as the inequalities surrounding diversity and inclusion that exist in the media industry and in society. This panel gathers some of the top Indigenous women producers and creatives in Canada today. Hear about their paths to success, challenges they have faced along the way, and how the industry can invest to create a sector and projects that reflect all Canadian voices.
