Using oral history, archival sources, and poetry, Dr. Hamdi Mohamed discussed the early experiences of Somali Canadians, how they are constructing new narratives, and making creative spaces to make contributions based on ancestral wisdom and a living legacy of artistic expressions.

Her life has been dedicated to designing transformative conversations and learning methodologies through volunteering, working, and teaching.
