the signing of Treaty 3

and the impact of Euro-western religion and economy

which they can use to rewrite their lives in the image of their own inner beings

and kindness but also language

The Baby Blues Plays the signing of Treaty 3The Baby Blues by Ojibwe playwright Drew Hayden Taylor is a social satire mixed with a large dose of Indigenous humour about identity, parenthood, powwows, and stereotypes. An aging fancy dancer, a young fancy dancer, an anthropology student with 1 64th Aboriginal heritage, a single parent mom, and her daughter all meet during a powwow weekend. All participants in this drama learn important lessons about themselves, life, and First Nations cultures.
