First Nation and Indigenous Peoples Reconciliation

On this episode of Let's Pause, we explore the intersectionality of racial and ethnic identity in First Nation Indigenous peoples and historical traumas beset by colonialization. Join us as we welcome Dr. Kisha Supernant, Director of the Institute of Prairie and Indigenous Archeology and Associate Professor of Anthropology at the University of Alberta. As an indigenous and First Nation member of the Metis, she is uniquely poised to educate and connect cultural identities, "kinscapes," and the cartographies of deep time relevant to  the Pacific Northwest (and to us all). Dr. Supernant leads us in a discussion of the use of remote sensing and ground penetrating radar in the search for unmarked burials and the remains of First Nation communities. A compelling narrative that will drawn you in...pushing us all to confront a painful and poorly understood past of oppression and human suffering.Thanks for listening to Let's Pause!To learn more, check out www.letspause.org Leave us a message at [email protected]!
