Video of Debra Sparrow speaks about collective cognitive dissonance
“I think people forget exactly who they are. We are disconnected. My existence is to know why I exist in this world. To be in touch with the universe,” Sparrow said during an interview on June 10.
When Sparrow told her mother she was finished with the school system halfway through the eighth grade, she was sent out to get a job. She started working at the Gulf of Georgia Cannery on the line, which she loved. It was an abundant time for the coastal fishing industry, and she was pulling in good cash doing work she enjoyed.
