Story

The Gettin’ Higher Choir presents “Sharing the Flame”.

Our guest, Pindian, is a Kwakwa̲ka̲’wakw and Nuu-Cha-Nulth hiphop artist, and will take the stage with Sammy K on bass and Sina Valizadeh on drums.

The choir will bring some newer folk tunes from the US and UK, a Canadian classic rock hit, an old Ukrainian folk song, and more, with opportunities to sing along.

With Pindian, we have plans for mashing up some traditions, including his own rapping, and a soulful hiphop tune from the 1990s.

About the charity

IRSSS provides essential services to Residential School Survivors, their families, and those dealing with Intergenerational traumas. These impacts affect every family and every community across B.C. and Canada. This fact is most evident in the Corrections Canada Services-the numbers of First Nations people incarcerated, Child and Family Services child apprehensions, the high number of people on social assistance, unemployment and underemployed, lower levels of education, the lowest number within an ethnic minority of “determinants of health”, the list of impacts is extremely high while the services available to effectively assist impacts of Residential Schools remain quite low.
