Wahbanang, The Resurgence of a People: Clearing the Path for Our Survival
October 07, 2021

The Turtle Lodge and Manitoba First Nations Education Resource Centre (MFNERC) present Wahbanang: The Resurgence of our People – Clearing the Path for Our Survival. It commemorates the 50th Anniversary of Wahbung: Our Tomorrows.

Authored by Anishinaabe, Ininiwak (Cree), and Dakota Knowledge Keepers, Elders, and Chiefs, Wahbanang shares ancestral wisdom. It offers an urgent warning and a blueprint for all peoples to uphold the Great Binding Laws of the Creator and Mother Earth. Includes a video presentation.

Wahbanang, meaning 'Going Back to the beginning,' builds on the 1971 Wahbung, which asserted First Nations' inherent rights. It originated from a 2018 Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs (AMC) initiative at the Turtle Lodge. It is available for purchase here.
