On today’s episode Jessica hosts Dr. Kisha Supernant (Métis), Associate Professor of Anthropology at the University of Alberta. You may remember Dr. Supernant from Heritage Voices Episode 30 on Cultural Landscapes. Dr. Supernant talks about how the indigenous experience in Canada differs from that in the US, including the Truth and Reconciliation Commission. We also talk about Métis identity and how it has been largely misunderstood. Finally, we talk about archaeology and identity, the real and complicated consequences of archaeology, and how to do archaeology right no matter the location and associated communities by working through an Archaeologies of the Heart approach.
