What does it mean to be a descendant and a future ancestor at the same time? In her latest book of poetry, “procession,” katherena vermette aims to answer that question for herself — and she just might inspire you to think about it, too. katherena is an award-winning, critically acclaimed Michif (Red River Métis) writer from Winnipeg, whose work spans poetry and fiction, but almost always takes on themes of family, intergenerational relationships, and the ties that bind us together. She joins Tom Power to talk about her new collection, and how parts of it were inspired by looking at old family photos.
