Canadaland

The Kamloops Indian Residential School made headlines five years ago this month. What followed was tears across the country, marches, statues torn down, and the Prime Minister bending a knee while holding a teddy bear. Then came the counter narrative fuelled by books with titles like Grave Error and Dead Wrong.Today we talk to Dr. Kisha Supernant, Professor of Anthropology at the University of Alberta, who has been working in the field at potential grave sites across the country. What has she found? What is the tone of the debate five years on from Kamloops? And why are there still so many questions?Host: Jesse BrownCredits: Julian Abraham (Reporter), Caleb Thompson (Post Production), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), Jesse Brown (Editor and Publisher)Additional music by Audio NetworkFact checking by Kallan LyonsSponsors: oxio: Head over to canadaland.oxio.ca and use code CANADALAND for your first month free! Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at https://shopify.caArticle: Art
