Today is the 20th annual National Aboriginal Day in Canada, a celebration of Indigenous peoples' contributions to this country's history. It's also an opportunity for outlets like The FADER to reflect on how we promote the work and stories of Indigenous artists, and all the ways we can improve in how we interact with their cultures. To celebrate, we've compiled a selection of some of the emerging Native artists we've recently covered who deserve to be heard all year round.
