Summarization
Niigaanwewidam, a professor at the University of Manitoba, encourages students to incorporate Indigenous voices, knowledge, and perspectives in their studies of any subject, not just humanities. Others discuss the Gerald Stanley case, where Stanley, the victim's protector, fired shots in self-defense when Colten Boushie and some of his friends trespassed Stanley's farm and attempted to steal from him. Though this was an unfortunate incident where a young man lost his life, some of these users believe that justice was served and that it could have been avoided by better choices from the people who trespassed.

| 1624478839903494145 | Indigenous voices, knowledge and perspectives shouldn't be woven only into humanities courses, says University of Manitoba professor @Niigaanwewidam. 'Science, phys ed, math — Indigenous knowledge belongs in all of those places, too.' #onted https://t.co/qS72bgV8JY | 15 |
| 1625143300129955840 | Thanks @Niigaanwewidam for echoing @JanelleDelorme researched family history. A courageous lady chose to share an inspiring yet sad story from our community. Merci Janelle et Janet pour votre beau travail. #histoire #archives https://t.co/aM3cHDMLiV | 5 |
| 1625189999632125978 | The latest Niigaan and the Lone Ranger podcast is out! @Niigaanwewidam and @danlett interview NDP Leader @WabKinew, plus, stepping up the campaign to get @arnettwill on the podcast and more on the raging raisin debate. https://t.co/IITz1kpA30 | 3 |
| 1627148274955067394 | Oh oh @SeanCarleton @Niigaanwewidam @NCTR_UM: @WokeWatchCDN is destroying your narrative with facts.#cdnhist #cdnpoli https://t.co/Ok3cEz5E0e | 3 |
| 1624067265967841280 | @JMoufalt @Niigaanwewidam The law in Canada states very clearly that guns are for hunting. We do not have castle laws in this country. It is illegal to use a gun in this country for protection of property. GUNS ARE FOR SPORT ONLY HERE. Go to the U.S. if you want to live by their laws..... | 3 |
| 1624958918131879938 | @Niigaanwewidam Yeah, and other indigenous people don't have the same issue and proudly choose to participate https://t.co/211wCCmyry | 3 |
| 1624078941878374400 | @Niigaanwewidam Wow. It is awful that a young man lost his life. The circumstances that ended in his death were 100% avoidable- by the people who were blackout drunk and accosted a family working outside on their farm. Lying does more harm than good. https://t.co/DsxtGLvzXW | 2 |
| 1626081326427250690 | St. Boniface Industrial School closed in 1905 due to a lack of students - in 15 years, 87 of 280 students died.Bishop Taché knew.Truth before Reconciliation . Action gives Reconciliation meaning.Remove his name.✝️Via @Niigaanwewidam https://t.co/oqWz4Bjekl | 1 |
| 1624272145118527488 | @jabruneau @Niigaanwewidam The sad irony of this sad story is that ultimately the rancher found guilty of stealing farm equipment in that area never even went to jail and media coverage was minimal. https://t.co/i7axWs03jf | 1 |

| 1623872165476024323 | @Niigaanwewidam Please tell the whole story next time. This is a poor example. He and his friends were trespassing and attempting to steal from him. While it's sad he's no longer with us, he was not innocent in the events that took place and everyone should have the right to protect their home | 79 |
| 1624061907098378243 | @Niigaanwewidam 4 against 1, attempted robbery, loaded firearm found, 2 warning shots and he was still there ..... The injustice seems to be that there was even a trial, but in Canada sadly the criminals often have more protection than victim. Sorry, the VICTIM is Gerald Stanley,not thief | 58 |
| 1623880221987586048 | @Niigaanwewidam Maybe dont threaten old men on their own property at night? | 47 |

| 1624089202051932160 | @Niigaanwewidam Another guy opining about something he didn’t research. Carload (5) of men/women drunk to the level of mentally incapacity, armed and trying to steal anything in sight… nearly ran over farmers son… and on and on … | 31 |
| 1624081188569890816 | @Niigaanwewidam He was a criminal trespassing on private property end of story. He was a shifty human being | 30 |

| 1624070297157779456 | @Niigaanwewidam They entered onto his property under the influence of drugs and booze, with a loaded firearm with the intent of robbing him and lord knows what else. Justice , both natural and karmatic, was done. | 23 |
| 1624065337455935488 | @Niigaanwewidam Sorry but justice was served that night. | 21 |
| 1624092069664006144 | @Niigaanwewidam The thing that surprised me was not the fact that he murdered that young man and got away with it, but that he was at least guilty of manslaughter under our laws. Even if he had no intention of shooting anyone, having the firearm there makes him guilty of manslaughter. | 21 |
