Trent University Ph.D. candidate Christine Sy
Trent University Ph.D. candidate Christine SyTrent University Ph.D. candidate Christine Sy has been awarded a $5,000 Harshman Fellowship for her research examining Anishinaabe women and the sugar bush economy in the Great Lakes region during the 18th and 19th centuries.
‘The Anishinaabe women’s economic process is unique,’ explained Ms. Sy. ‘Our relationship with the land is not based on capitalism – it is holistic – it includes spirit, family, and extended relations.
