On June 6, the Kizhaay Anishinaabe Niin program at the Thunder Bay Indigenous Friendship Centre marked Blue Jean Jacket Day by hanging blue jean jackets outside our building in honour of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Men and Boys. Every jacket represents a life that mattered. Every story deserves to be heard. Miigwetch to all who stood with us. 💙
