Tatanga Day celebrations, hosted by the Buffalo People Arts Institute, took place on July 1st at Buffalo Meadows Park in Regina to honour Indigenous children and the Buffalo while celebrating Indigenous culture and community.

There was a traditional pow-wow along with many drummers, entertainment, vendors, street mural artists and a community Buffalo feast.

“Today we are not celebrating Canada Day,” said Jeff Cappo the Master of Ceremonies. “Here we are decolonizing Canada Day. We come here to dance; we come here to sing.”

Cappo encouraged the audience to learn a word or song.

“A long time ago there was a system called colonization and tried to take us out as Indigenous people, but we’re still here, we’re resilient people,” said Cappo.
