from Tales from the Chesterfield · host Alysia Michaud and Kayla Wedgewood
"Indigenous Woman and Girls are not vulnerable to violence...They are TARGETED people." This is a call to you to begin, or continue, to engage with MMIWG2S. Canada has a silent genocide that has been happening since colonization - silent for many reasons you will learn throughout this episode. If you are not aware, even if you’re not a Canadian, about this crisis occurring today, there are some really incredible podcasts I would ask you to begin listening to to gain a deep understanding of why we are choosing to highlight this topic - The Secret Life of Canada, Telling Our Twisted Histories, This Place, and there are many others. This will be the first of many episodes bringing to light some of the 1200 MMIWG2S people. For our first of 6 episodes in this series, we will be sharing Tina Fontaine and her families story.
