Listening to your kids.
Learning about your kids.
Understanding your kids.

Accepting WHO your child is and letting them follow the path that is for them.

I know, I know….you had big dreams for them. Their life does not belong to you and they have big dreams for them too.

Supporting your kids in being who they are IS su***de prevention.

Missing Matoaka is intended to set the record straight on several harmful misconceptions and stereotypes surrounding the story of Pocahontas/Matoaka:

She was only 10 years old when she first encountered John Smith. And unlike the movie depiction, she didn’t abandon her people. Instead, the European invaders kidnapped Matoaka and held her hostage;
She was sexually assaulted and forced to marry one of her captors as a condition of her release, but would never be truly free again;
She was taken from her homelands and paraded around Europe as an example of successful colonization. She died from disease/poisoning fleeing England when she was just 21 years old.

MUSKRAT Magazine is honoured to help share the Missing Matoaka Project and unveil the real story of Pocahontas. We believe that Indigenous stories must be told through the lens and voices of Indigenous people who bring a necessary truth to centuries of misrepresentation and destructive colonial whitewashing.
