This talk will look at the deep and multi-layered story of the Anishnaabek and their relation to the Gitchi-Gumek (Great Lakes). This journey goes through thousands of years, through conflict, ceremony and commitment to being home. Eric Hemenway, Humanities Manager at U-M's School of Environment and Sustainability, leads the learning of how water defines the Anishnaabek and has impacted every major decision for the numerous communities in Michigan.
