Dan George was born in a tribal family where he got the name Geswanouth Slahoot. He had to change his name to George when he entered a missionary boarding school at the age of five. Also, the use of his native language was prohibited there. Apart from being a notable actor, he was a poet too. While giving a speech, he recited his own poem among his people. He emphasized the impact of colonialism and its effect on the society and in politics. He was also an environmentalist, spiritual healer who promoted traditional values and a spokesperson for the natives. He inspired many Indigenous leaders to come out of the shadows of past and move forward for a better future. He even pointed out the low number of native children getting government aids for their education and development. He helped in creating awareness among his people to know about their rights and fight for it. It was only because of his education and career that he realized the rights of the natives which would help in improving the condition of his people.
