CESA raises awareness about June 21, National Aboriginal Day
HSAs Committee for Equality and Social Action is encouraging members to help raise awareness about National Aboriginal Day, a day first proclaimed in 1996 as an annual occasion to recognize the diverse cultures and outstanding contributions to Canada of the First Nations, Inuit and Métis.
This years sticker features the logo of the Sisters in Spirit project, which works to improve the human rights and address the violence facing Aboriginal women. HSA supports this project through NUPGE and direct donations.
The logo shows Grandmother Moon, who is a powerful teaching about aboriginal womens special connection to Grandmothers who have passed into the Spirit world. Grandmother Moon provides women with direction, strength, knowledge and wisdom.
The stickers are available from your steward.
