Thunder in our Voices

Thunder in our Voices

February 6, 2018

On Tuesday, July 25th at 7 pm at The Aurora Research Institute, Drew Ann Wake and Dr. Christie will give a remarkable presentation titled “Thunder in our Voices”.

"In 1975-6, Justice Thomas Berger visited thirty Dene and Inuvialuit communities for hearings on the proposed Mackenzie Valley pipeline. More than 900 northerners spoke. Now, one of the reporters who covered the Inquiry, Drew Ann Wake, has created videos with the voices of those who testified".
