June is National Indigenous History Month. For settlers, this is a time to actively engage in learning about the vast and unique histories of the many Indigenous communities and the relationship of Indigenous people with early settlers, the British Crown, and now Canada. On the national website<\/a>, there are tons of opportunities to explore key figures and moments in history. We also encourage people to take the time to check out native-land.ca<\/a>, an interactive map and education website, to begin to understand the ways in which colonialism and treaties currently impact Indigenous peoples. We hope that people will use this time to support and seek out Indigenous voices online, learn from individuals current personal stories, and engage in the history and future of Turtle Island. June is also a time for Indigenous Peoples to celebrate their Indigeneity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

CANCORE, a streaming service which features Canadian produced content, provides specific filters so you can find Indigenous only content. This is a great way to support Indigenous filmmakers and artists! We highly recommend the Amplify series<\/a>, which APTNTV describes as a \u201cmusical performance art documentary series that amplifies the connection Indigenous song-writers have to the stories, culture, community, and the challenges and justice they stand up for.\u201d Just click the \u201cIndigenous Only Content\u201d button in the top right corner and then find a subject you are interested in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you are looking for something more specific you can use the Keyword Search mode. For example if you\u2019d like to learn more about treaties through video there are tons of options available for you. Simply use  the keyword search bar, and make sure the Indigenous content only button is clicked. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There are other video resources available for you. For example, this link<\/a> takes you the advanced search of “Indigenous” and “Canada” and DVD format. There you can browse through 38 DVD’s on a variety of topics. If you are more into digitally accessible videos, there are tons of e-videos<\/a> about Indigenous communities in Canada. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are so many ways to continue learning about Indigenous history in Canada. McGill\u2019s subscription to CANCORE is just one way to increase the accessibility of Indigenous content for students and staff. We encourage you explore the platform \u2013and more\u2013 and to carry what you learn beyond June. We will be posting more throughout June on other ways you can use the Library catalogue to find more Indigenous content!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
