Show your solidarity publicly.<\/li>\n<li>Consume goods and services that benefit Indigenous artists and artisans.<\/li>\n<li>Learn to listen carefully and openly when Indigenous people talk about their past and current realities. Be curious without being intrusive.<\/li>\n<li>Leave your comfort zone by questioning your privileges, biases and prejudices. Take part in a more egalitarian distribution of power by accepting to lose these privileges.<\/li>\n<li>Take an interest in Indigenous languages. Learn some words of greeting and courtesy.<\/li>\n<li>Take on the role of a multiplier: learn about contemporary demands and share this information with your friends and family.<\/li>\n<li><a id=\"nations\"><\/a>Take part in a Pow Wow, a special time for nations to come together.
