Headline News: Wabanaki Sovereignty in the 21st Century is a ground breaking exhibit inspired by news headlines of the past twenty years. Through a combination
of actual news headlines and first person voice of Wabanaki leaders, the exhibit will explore eight topics frequently covered in
the news. A wide array of objects will compliment the story and foster greater understanding of Wabanaki issues.
