In early 2024 the team travelled to Akwesasne Territory to learn about daily life in Akwesasne and what entrepreneurship looks like in the community.

In this episode your hosts Andre Spence and Afaf Ghazi recount the team's experiences in the community. Hear from community leaders Jason Lazore and Troy Thompson about the challenges of living in a unique area. We had the opportunity to help develop multimedia skills for Camryn and Alden, a couple of Mohawk high school students.

While in Akwesasne we met with many entrepreneurs including lacrosse stick makers Lewis and Doreen Mitchell, Kelly Back, who turns beadwork into a business and a form of healing, and artist Kit Thomas, who discusses their work as a platform for Indigenous and LGBTQIA2S advocacy.
