Janelle Niles is a Black, Mi’kmaw, two-spirited woman from Sipekne’katik First Nation in Nova Scotia and a stand-up comedian. Despite a tumultuous upbringing that would break most, Janelle confronts her mixed heritage head-on, embracing her biracial experience and queer identity, while using stand-up to heal and usher in a new era of inclusive Canadian comedy.
