In this jaw-dropping episode, we dive into the controversial investigations of Kevin Annett, a long-time advocate for survivors of church-run residential schools and institutional abuse. For over 30 years, Annett has pushed to expose what he calls hidden crimes within powerful systems, from churches to governments to global financial networks. We explore the shadow side of history, including allegations of church involvement in the abuse of Indigenous children, covert programs tied to mind-control experiments like MKUltra, and the networks involved in human trafficking. Annett discusses why he believes certain institutions, including courts and media, avoid touching these issues - and why citizen-led inquiries and independent tribunals may be the only path to truth. The episode unpacks big themes: The tension between power, politics, and religious institutions How trauma can lead to dissociative coping mechanisms Why Annett argues that systems are designed to protect perpetrators, not victims How communities can reclaim power through local governance and citizen-driven justice At its core, this conversation is about one thing: truth as a tool for change. Whether you’re researching church abuse scandals, institutional corruption, or grassroots justice movements, this episode offers a provocative look at what happens when everyday people refuse to stay silent.
