7 Generations by @davidarobertson.bsky.social & @scottbhendersonart.bsky.social is a moving, wonderful graphic novel about Plain Cree indigenous people and generational trauma across 2 centuries. A new 15th anniversary edition is well worth your attention!

I’m so honoured that the news is finally out that I’ll be receiving an Honorary Doctor of Laws from the University of Lethbridge this May. Really excited and humbled.
Wasn’t sure what kind of photo to use, so this is me right now looking a bit tired and awkward.
