Strength from Stardust with Susan Bernard and Serena Francis
“Strength from Stardust” – comes from the idea that we come all come from the stars. Humans, plants and animals are made up of the same material stars are made of. We are all connected and we get our strength from that connection. Listen to Susan and her Mi’kiju (grandmother) Serena talk to fellow Indigenous peoples about our connection to the stars, and more. Some themes highlighted throughout are: Dreamtime, Ceremonies, Wampum Belts, Petroglyphs, Sacred Sites, Our Relatives and Language.

Listen to Serena Francis retell “Star Bride” an old Mi’kmaw Star Story. There are many versions of this story out there all varying in length. Which tells us it must have been a favorite because we were telling it and retelling it enough to have so many versions. This is the version Serena knows, and she tells is all in Mi’kmaw!
