Harold Lavallee discusses the importance of learning about culture in order to heal and understand identity.
Harold Lavallee is a Knowledge Keeper from Piapot First Nation. After surviving five years of residential schools he turned to drugs and alcohol. At 24 years old, he began to learn about his identity and after years of learning cultural traditions and environmentalism from Elders, he continues to pass on this knowledge to people at conferences, gatherings, and events across Canada and the United States. Using a land-based approach, he teaches and shares knowledge about traditional medicine, traditional gatherings, and traditional healing. He is passionate about culture, cultural validation, and the environment.
