The Anishinaabe are guided by the Seven Grandfather Teachings—Love, Bravery, Humility, Wisdom, Honesty, Respect, and Truth. In Seven Truths, we explore each teaching through the eyes of Anishinaabe storyteller Tanya Talaga, and through the lives and experiences of people she’s proud to know. These truths, told through contemporary stories, help us find common ground here on Turtle Island, so that we can live together, justly.
Meet Sam Achneepineskum, Tanya’s Elder and someone she credits with helping her to explore her role both as a journalist and as an Anishnaabe kwe who straddles various worlds. Sam sets us on our journey with Tanya, reminding us that the teaching of love is something that needs to be worked on every day, in a world that often feels like it’s trying to erase you, your family, and your community.
