Activity 2 – Flags to Create Solidarity

Here the Mi’kmaq Nation flag is used for two other purposes. Can you describe what the purposes might be and whether or not the flag is being used to bring people together? How? How might a flag give people a feeling of belonging? A feeling of identity? Do you wear anything that shows your identity?

Mi'kmaq flag used on a shirt and poster design
The poster on the right shows the slogans “Mi’kmaq Unity”, “#idlenomore” and “indigenous rights revolution”
