Our project is a zine discussing the MacLeod Gazette article entitled “Arrest of the Indian Cattle Killers.” The zine covers the history of the Stoney-Nakoda people, life in the Morleyville area, Indigenous-settler relations and perceptions, Treaty 7, and the involvement of the McDougall family with the Indigenous people of the area. The zine delivers an enriching micro-history surrounding the perception of Indigenous culture under a colonial lens. How it affected the Indigenous community then andhow it carries out now.
