Kevin Lamarr Jr
Kwey, Wàbigwàn Àndeg nidijinikaz. My name is White Feathered Crow, my English name is Sonny Robbins, and I am a Knowledge Keeper and Ceremony Conductor from the Algonquins of Pikwakanagan First Nation.
I grew up in Scarborough, Ontario, away from my community and away from my culture. My dad was never taught our traditional ways because of the impacts of colonization, so he wasn't able to pass those teachings on to me. As I got older and started my own family, I knew that if my children were going to know who they are and where they come from, it was up to me to find those teachings.
Like many people, I have made mistakes in my life and have done things I'm not proud of. Looking back now, I see that my journey back to culture and ceremony became my healing journey. Culture gave me purpose, direction, and helped me become the man I wanted to be for my family and my community.
My first real connection back to culture came through Pow Wow dance classes with my daughters. Being able to learn alongside them meant a lot to me and showed me that it was never too late to reconnect. About twelve years ago, I was introduced to Okichitaw Indigenous Combat Arts. That experience changed my life. Through Okichitaw, I met Elders and Knowledge Keepers who took the time to teach me, guide me, and help me grow spiritually. I have been very fortunate to sit with some incredible Elders. Some are still here to guide me today, while others have gone on to the Spirit World, but their teachings continue to stay with me every day.
Over the last five years, with the continued guidance of my Elders, I have been honoured to begin leading ceremony, especially sweat lodge ceremonies. I don't see myself as someone who has all the answers. I am still learning every day, and I always will be. I believe that learning never stops, and I carry the teachings I've been given with respect and humility.
My goal has always been to bring what I have learned back to my own community. For the last three years, I have been blessed to help bring regular ceremony back to the Algonquins of Pikwakanagan. Being able to provide opportunities for our people and their families to reconnect with ceremony, culture, and one another has been one of the greatest honours of my life.
I believe our culture is medicine. It has the power to heal people, strengthen families, and reconnect us to who we are as Anishinaabe people. My hope is to continue learning from my Elders, sharing what has been shared with me, and helping create spaces where our people can heal, learn, and carry these teachings forward for the next seven generations.
I am Kevin Lamarr, a proud member of the Algonquins of Pikwakanagan First Nation and a cultural educator, facilitator, and community advocate. My work is rooted in Algonquin values and teachings, and I am committed to sharing Indigenous knowledge, history, and lived experience in ways that promote understanding, respect, and meaningful learning.
Through cultural teachings, workshops, and guided experiences, I focus on helping participants better understand Algonquin worldviews, responsibilities to the land, and the continued presence of Algonquin people on our ancestral territories. I place strong importance on cultural awareness, oral knowledge, and learning through lived experience.
As a facilitator, I strive to create welcoming, respectful spaces where dialogue and questions are encouraged. I work with schools, post-secondary institutions, organizations, and community groups to support education, reconciliation, and relationship-building between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples.
I am also actively involved in community initiatives and cultural events that strengthen connection, wellness, and pride within our community. My work reflects a deep commitment to cultural revitalization, education, and supporting future generations through shared knowledge and community leadership.
