Kevin Wesaquate is a writer, spoken word poet, visual artist, and co-founder of the Indigenous Poetry Society in Saskatoon. He does a lot of great work carving out spaces for indigenous artists where there might not otherwise be. We talk about his upbringing and sense of justice, early days in the spoken word and poetry scenes, dealing with dyslexia as a kid, emerging as a painter with the help of SCYAP, Kevin's instagram page (great for radio, I know), incorporating histories like that of mistasiniy into his work, and the indigenous traditions of oral storytelling. The next Indigenous Poetry Society show takes place March 7th at The 220.
