The vision of "Taking Care of Our History Bundle” originates from sacred bundles which has its roots in the Anishinaabe culture going back thousands of years. The bundle is a sacred item that requires great care and respect in the caring of the bundle and its items holds records of our history encompassing rituals with instructions written on sacred scrolls. Individuals within our community are given the responsibility to care for the bundle for generations and to pass the bundle onto other individuals to ensure this process continues.
“Taking Care of Our History Bundle” carries on that tradition. Over the last fifty years the Treaty Aboriginal Rights Research (T.A.R.R) has generated collections of records, such as maps, videos, audio recordings, photographs, oral histories statements by community members and copies of RG10 files. The impact of this project has a far-reaching cultural significance that creates a historic textual picture that brings the past into the now. The Bundle will bring together people who are in the pursuit of putting together the missing spirit in the ever-growing historical resurgence happening across turtle island."
