It’s Time to Talk: Indigenous Speaker Series
On Dec 2, at 7 p.m. the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo is proud to present its Indigenous Speaker Series; a free virtual event, featuring TEDx and motivational speaker, professional wrestler, and TikTok content creator Andrew “Dreadful” Bird. Andrew is a young Indigenous man from Saskatchewan, now living in British Columbia.
Growing up, he lived in many homes, attended a few different schools, faced homelessness and was raised by his single mother. He chased and achieved a childhood dream of becoming a professional wrestler, which led to meeting his wife, having their son, and speaking twice on a TEDxTalk stage.
Now, with his stories and experiences, he shares the tools that helped him get to where he is and spreads gratitude along the way. If you’re unfamiliar with @dreadfulbird, we encourage you to check out his work on TikTok. We are thrilled to have him join us and share his inspirational life story, as well as some uplifting tips. Join us on Dec 2 at 7 p.m. To register, please email participate@rmwb.ca
