From the wall text: “In its translation to Kwak'wala, Oh, How I Long For Home - 'Wa'lasan xwalsa kan ne'nakwe' - refers to a "return," as well as to the cycle of the sun rising. The double meaning of title not only points to an idea of home as Indigenous territory, but the longing for home that settlers also seek, complicated by unceded lands.”

I’ll be coming up for air soon, but meanwhile I want to thank everyone who helped make the @andnowfestival2019: Points of Convergence a success! Thanks to all the attendees, to my colleagues (especially Jeanne Heuving and Maya Sonenberg), to the MFA in Creative Writing and Poetics, @simpson.center, and @ias_uwb for their support, and from the bottom of my heart gratitude to @qodnrl and @afox2101 for obsessing over these @miir tumblers with me. Pretty happy with how everything turned out. — 💖 Amaranth
