Contributor Bio(s): Morriseau, Sean: - I was born in Vancouver British Columbia in 1994. I would say I come from I mid-sized family. It was Mom, Dad, Nicole, Stephanie, James and me. We didn't have much growing up but we always had each other. I moved to Fort William First Nation Ontario when I was about 5 years old. It's where my dad was originally born and is now my pride and home. I grew up on the Rez and did a lot for someone my age. Most of the events in my book are based on true experiences that have happened to me and my community growing up. I'm still young and I have a lot to learn but everyday is a new adventure for me. I enjoy my culture and where I come from and I'm proud to say that I'm indigenous. |
