It all started as a social media project. Little did Paul Seesequasis know it would eventually lead to a book deal and a visual exhibition. Seesequasis started going through photos in archives, libraries and museums, collecting photos from the 1920s through the ’70s. Historical photos of everyday life in First Nations, Metis and Inuit communities. Shortly after sharing them on Twitter and Facebook, people started commenting and recognizing family members and friends.
