'It really gives us the platform to be able to talk to what's important ... to me as a Gwich'in woman'Yellowknife's Tania Larsson makes Gwich'in fine jewellery. One of her pieces was recently worn by celebrity Billie Eilish in a Vogue photo shoot.
Later, when Benally was at the Tribeca Festival in New York City at a film premiere wearing the same necklace, Gwich'in and Lakota model and activist Quannah Chasinghorse saw it and she complimented Benally on it.So Benally took it off and gave it to Chasinghorse. "So on the shoot, Quannah ended up giving it to her because she wanted to give her a piece of Gwich'in adornment for this moment, and for the work that she's done, and like bringing in all these activists and amplifying their voices on this platform," Larsson said."I was in shock. I was completely in shock. Actually, my partner called me and was like, Did you see the news? Did you see this news?" Larsson recalled. "I was just like, speechless.
"It really gives us the platform to be able to talk to what's important to us, what's important to me, as a Gwich'in woman," she said.
