  • Eye opening

    This was fascinating and very sad to listen to - I’m not from Canada and hadn’t heard survivors themselves talk about their experiences in the “schools” (if you can call them that) before. They were very brave to talk so publicly about the trauma they experienced. more

  • A must listen!

    This short, but powerful series deals with difficult issues, but is very worth the listen. For someone like me, (not Canadian), the recent discovery of unmarked graves in residential schools needed context. Found a good start here. White supremacy is not unique to any one Western country. Thank you for the series. A good stepping stone in my education to understand and hopefully contribute to dismantling white supremacy.

  • Good for a base level of knowledge but also a plug for Gov of Canada

    Worth a listen for a basic level of knowledge and to hear the testimonies from survivors. There is too much focus on what Canada is doing now to help. These were concentration camps and some of the language used to to describe doesn’t feel strong enough. They didn’t die of all of these horrible acts committed against them. They were murdered.
