The Backbench

The So-Called Era Of Reconciliation


Listen Later

Three generations of Indigenous panelists join us this week on what The Backbench thought was the biggest story of 2021: the unmarked graves on former residential school grounds. We break format to take stock of what has been promised and repromised, the diversity of demands from Indigenous communities, and what a new "interlocutor" position can do to help with healing.


Guests: Leena MinifieRiley Yesno feat. Romeo Saganash
