Jessie Moreau Jessie Moreau is a Métis woman from Ontario, Canada in Lakehead University's Bachelor of Education program. The creation of Being (Mé)tis has been a passion project of hers with the ambition of inspiring pride, community, and hope among young Indigenous boys and girls who feel dissociated from their cultural heritage. She hopes that any person who reads her story will ultimately be encouraged to seek out that which makes them unique as a person and that which makes them whole.

 

Being Metis

 
A tale of identity, community, and blood memory.

A young woman's story of growing up without knowledge of her heritage. Although she feels like she is alone in her struggle, the young woman slowly realizes that community is more than just the people who live around you.

 

EVERYONE WELCOME
