Tiffany is a member of the Kainai (Blood Tribe) of the Siksikasitapi (Blackfoot Confederacy). She is an assistant professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of Lethbridge. Tiffany recently curated the 'Stolen Kainai Children: Stories of Survival' exhibit, showcased at the Galt Museum & Archives in Lethbridge, Alberta. In an interview with Gordon, they delve into the evolution of the Residential School System, Tiffany's aspirations to take the exhibit international, and the importance of access to and awareness of the histories and policies behind the Residential School System, for the healing journeys of Survivors and intergenerational Survivors.
