...About Indigenous Issues (Part 1: Terminology)
Transcript available here.This episode sets off our mini season within a season in which we unpack issues facing Indigenous communities in Canada. In this first episode, we're breaking down the first chapter of Chelsea Vowel's formative book, Indigenous Writes: A Guide to First Nations, Métis & Inuit Issues in Canada , "The Terminology of Relationships". We discuss issues around language, some of the nuances of naming, and what we as non-Indigenous folk need to consider in our language use when referring to Indigenous peoples.
