☀️ OUR 2020 SUMMER SERIES BEGINS ☀️
Once again this year, we at MEDIA INDIGENA have dug deep into our archives to bring you a summer-long series of collected, connected conversations, on a variety of topics: from drugs to data, the arts to activism.
We begin with a subject some argue has always been at the heart of the Canadian project: genocide. Once dismissed outright as an object of any serious consideration in this country, there is today a compelling case to be made that Canada's past and present actions indeed merit the label of genocide.
Featured voices this podcast include (in order of appearance):
• Ryerson University professor Chris Powell, author of Barbaric Civilizations: A Critical Sociology of Genocide
• Historian James Daschuk, author of Clearing the Plains: Disease, the Politics of Starvation, and the Loss of Aboriginal Life
• Brock Pitawanakwat, associate professor of Indigenous studies at York University
• Ken Williams, assistant professor with the University of Alberta’s department of drama
• Candis Callison, Associate Professor in the Institute for Critical Indigenous Studies and the Graduate School of Journalism at UBC
• Kim TallBear, associate professor in the Faculty of Native Studies at the University of Alberta and Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Peoples, Technoscience & Environment
