Johnny and Jess share their work together as a Settler and Indigenous writing team. Just as the characters in their writing model reconciliation through a friendship, Johnny and Jess discuss their processes and experiences modelling reconciliation through their work together and their resulting friendship.
The story we created in Two Tricksters Find Friendship was written intentionally as a tool for teachers to use in their classrooms to explore issues regarding reconciliation. These include addressing historical and continuing injustices, how to promote healing and the importance of working together. This workshop addresses and attempts to support the work of teachers in incorporating Indigenous education and ways of knowing into their practice.
