Episode 36 - Kevin Wesaquate

Kevin Wesaquate is a writer, spoken word poet,
visual artist, and co-founder of the Indigenous Poetry Society in
Saskatoon. He does a lot of great work carving out spaces for
indigenous artists where there might not otherwise be. We talk
about his upbringing and sense of justice, early days in the
spoken word and poetry scenes, dealing with dyslexia as a kid,
emerging as a painter with the help of SCYAP, Kevin's instagram
page (great for radio, I know), incorporating histories like that
of mistasiniy into his work, and the indigenous traditions of
oral storytelling. The next Indigenous Poetry Society show takes
place March 7th at The 220.
