Description
On this National Day for Truth and Reconciliation – we talk about an artist who is having a profound impact on the way we understand Canada’s past – and the resilience of Indigenous people. Riley Yesno, Susan Blight and Marion Newman celebrate Kent Monkman, whose gender-fluid alter ego, Miss Chief Eagle Testickle is now the subject of an opera, parts of which will be performed tonight (Sept 30) in Montreal.
