Marlon Weekusk, a member of the Onion Lake Cree Nation, is known by his icon: a howling white wolf that has held significance for him throughout his spiritual journey as a Cree. As well known as Weekuskâs identity is to his fans in the small world of Indigenous gaming, he realizes his culture goes almost completely unrecognized in the greater gaming world. And he is determined to change that by educating the online world while empowering other Indigenous content creators. Weekusk is one of a growing group of Indigenous streamers who are bringing their cultures to their gaming platforms.
