Indigenous youth keeping their culture alive

“Youth are very upset with the situation facing our community and also indigenous people across Turtle Island [North America]. [We] are feeling that many community leaders, specifically the government-backed band councils, never take any real action to improve our conditions, despite the often dire circumstances, from suicides to extreme malnutrition.”

Those are the words of Merrick Kahroniakete Diabo, a Mohawk youth activist and member of youth empowerment group Making Adult Decisions (MAD) in Kahnawake. Diabo was interviewed by Stefan Christoff this week for Montreal alt weekly The Hour in the second part of a series on youth issues in Montreal during Montreal Matters.

Youth in general often find it difficult to have their voices heard. Seeing your land and culture disappearing around you a bit at a time makes the need to speak out all the more necessary - but all the more difficult at the same time. Read the full article about First Nations youth in the Montreal area taking hold of their future here.
