Ep. 17: Valuing Indigenous Voices and Stories with Wapikoni's Odile Joannette
Odile was the Executive Director of Wapikoni, an organization that teaches filmmaking to Indigenous Youth across Canada and around the world, for three years. Wapikoni travels to Indigenous communities with fully equipped mobile studios to empower Indigenous Youth and encourage them to find their voices. In this episode, Odile shares the importance of narrative sovereignty, how access and mobility allow Indigenous communities to feel agency over their stories, and the power of storytelling as a tool for societal change. Discover the incredible impact of Indigenous filmmaking and the beautiful meaning of the name behind the organization "Wapikoni". You'll be inspired to see the world differently and find a new appreciation for storytelling, filmmaking, and indigenous empowerment.
(Wapikoni has recently announced that Odile Joannette is stepping down from her position as Executive Director. We want to congratulate her on all of her hard work and dedication to Wapikoni over the years.)
