Descrição
The spread of the Indigenous storytelling gospel has no borders, as Drew Hayden Taylor has shown. The Anishinaabe writer is one of the major names in the history of Indigenous Theatre and Indigenous Literature in Canada, who has contributed to the spread of Indigenous cultures and traditions through many different genres, such as theatre, novel, short stories and films. One might wander if it is the Anishinaabe nomadic tradition or the artistic career, but the fact is that travelling is part of the nature of the “Blue-Eyed Ojibway” that lives both in the Curve Lake Nation and in Toronto, in Ontario, but is also a citizen of the world. However, the great adventurer had never travelled to South America until last year. It was our fortunate meeting in Canada in 2018 that changed the course of this story, which also resulted in an interview published in Interfaces BrasilCanadá that year, entitled “Indigenous Storytelling in the Contemporary World: An Interview with Drew Hayden Taylor”. One more country was added to the passport of the great traveller, and one more significant bridge between Indigenous knowledges in Brazil and in Canada was promoted.
