Within the Myaamia community we often say that revitalization is about more than language. In this episode, Kara, Kristina, and George look at the revitalization of peekitahaminki ‘lacrosse’ as an example of the process and impacts of community revitalization through a sport that has some of the deepest Indigenous roots in North America. They are joined for this episode by Haley Shea, who speaks to the impact of cultural revitalization and specifically peekitahaminki in the Myaamia community.
