2010 World Expo in Shanghai

Indian Memento

A visit to the Indians of Canada pavilion at Expo 67, Montreal. Inside there are Indian artifacts, but even more arresting are the printed placards that tell the story of the Indian in North America, written without rancor but recalling what contact with European settlers has cost the Indian in freedom of movement, in loss of land, and in loss of health in body and spirit.

    “Quarante-trois ans après, je revisite ici le Pavillon des Indiens du Canada à Terre des Hommes que j'ai vu étant jeune et j'espère qu'on a conservé quelque chose de ce Pavillon, de ses totems et de ses oeuvres d'art magnifiques. J'ai aimé l'image que l'on donne ici de ces peuples: ils sont actifs, réjouissants et ils ont une mémoire aussi vive que leurs promesses d'avenir.” — carlophile, 22 Oct 2010
