Host Samantha Loney sits down with children's book author Willie Poll to discuss how they have been using their books to teach Indigenous youth about the impacts of colonialism on our communities, the importance of children seeing themselves represented in books, and collaborating with other Indigenous artists.

You can follow Willie Poll on Instagram here and purchase their books wherever books are sold. Willie's next book, Our Ancestors Kitchen, will be released April 2025. Pre-order here.
