Indigenous Peoples, culture and history, Reconciliation

These are pieces that I have found interesting and informative, though some of them can be disturbing.  I'll add more in future, and invite others to contribute, too.

The first two are courses available at not cost, to complete at your own speed. Everything except CBC radio and VIRL are internet-dependent. There are hundreds, possibly thousands, of books by Indigenous authors.

Stolen: surviving St. Michael's  (podcast  7 episodes, each 30-40 minutes)
Last May, investigative journalist Connie Walker came upon a story about her late father she'd never heard before. One night back in the late 1970s while he was working as an officer in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, he pulled over a suspected drunk driver. He walked up to the vehicle and came face-to-face with a ghost from his past—a residential school priest. What happened on the road that night set in motion an investigation that would send Connie deep into her own past, trying to uncover the secrets of her family and the legacy of trauma passed down through the generations.
In Stolen: Surviving St. Michael’s, Connie unearths how her family's story fits into one of Canada's darkest chapters: the residential school system.
