Interviewing First Nations Elder

[Researcher87]

So today I was able to do one interview with a first nations elder who went to Kamloops Residential School. He is from Cowichan. I will not relay on this board what we discussed because it will only between us with the understanding it is going into the article that I am writing.

And it was interesting and exciting just talking to this Elder from the Cowichan nation.

Is this article you are writing going to be published?

 

[Researcher87]

Yes I am looking to publish this article. I am unsure where though if it will be in an aboriginal or historical journal or in several journals.

 

[Researcher87]

I enjoyed interviewing the elder. Hopefully it will work well with the article.
