Ah yes. Mervin Windsor, Haisla-Heiltsuk, a piece called "Unity". https://www.facebook.com/510417372468564/photos/a.513650828811885.1073741825.510417372468564/513659618811006/?type=3&theater …

But how fitting that #canada150
be celebrated with an appropriated image by a Canadian artist.
@apihtawikosisan Gah! Will undo my retweet.
@SeptembreA I remember this one because ppl tried holding the artist to account but of course she was having none of it. White tear flood.
@apihtawikosisan I read Mervin's description of "Unity" and can appreciate his art over Mi'gmaq territory...would be interesting to know...
@apihtawikosisan how Jan describes her artistic process...and why she covered our territory with non local art..
@Mimiges "well I really love and honour Indigenous art and like, just wow like, so I just...you know, Canada, it's so beautiful and like..."
@apihtawikosisan lol!! think you nailed it
@apihtawikosisan Twitter needs a "broken heart" icon for posts like this, because really, who can "fav" plagiarism and appropriation? :(
@apihtawikosisan Wow. thanks for posting.
