billboard project

She is Spitting a Mouthful of Stars was written by award-winning Métis poet Gregory Scofield, whose aunt was murdered in 1998. The poem will be featured on AKA’s billboard space as the final project in a series of the same title surveying multidisciplinary approaches to protest, resistance and activism.  She is spitting a mouthful of stars is a powerful personal response to Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls. The poem honours the women and families who are impacted by this national crisis.
