About

About Anthony Joseph

Anthony Joseph is a Councillor of the Squamish Nation. He has grounded the Vancouver AI community meetups at the Space Centre with Indigenous welcomes, opening the July meetup with hand drum and a journey song, and his talk The Empty Seats Are Never Empty is one of the best things to happen on that stage. He opens Futureproof Festival the same way, with a welcome to Squamish territory before anything else is said.
