47,000 BEADS
- in collaboration with Perth & District Union Public Library + Queer Connection Lanark

Today's reader was Lorrie Potvin
My name is Lorrie Potvin and I’m a queerishly Two-Spirit
citizen of the Métis Nation of Ontario.
I’m reading 47,000 BEADS because it is a truly beautiful story of how a community of aunties, uncles, grandfathers and grandmothers come together to help Peyton,
a young two-spirit Lakota child,
with their regalia so that they can dance
at the pow wow for the first time.
