Mary B Georgekish: Wemindji246 photos
Mary B Georgekish was born in the bush in Wemindji territory in the 1940's. She learned many skills living on the land with her mother, sister and other family members. She attended residential school in the 1950's. In 1960 she bought her first camera and started taking many pictures. When she began teaching Cree Culture classes at the Maquatua Eeyou School in Wemindji during the 1990's, these photos, many of which documented family members practicing Cree traditional skills and knowledge, became useful teaching aids. This collection of 250 photos is organized according to the skills and activities they represent such as the spring goose hunt, preparing traditional food or getting a fishnet ready to use. There is also a large group of wedding pictures taken over the years from 1960 to the 1990's. When Mary heard about George Legrady's photo project on Wemindji radio, she phoned the station and generously offered to share some of her own images. She met with George and then worked with Katherine Scott to describe each photo in detail. The stories provide a rich history of life in Wemindji since the 1960's.

And this is what he's going to have for supper [in the lower right hand corner there's a roasting goose that's almost ready to eat]. He's bringing some geese. They are tied together with string. If he killed more there could be as many as five tied together in front and back or could be 4 tied together. That's a big weight to carry back to camp. Then the man puts the geese down. You know those geese are tied together with their small feathers on the wings - look carefully here. When they killed them, they tie them together. When they bring them home the women untie those feathers.
