In Canada, First Nations tribes were forced
into a boarding school system run by Christian churches, in which abuse
was rife. Here, three indigenous storytellers discuss how they are
remaking their society.
Sometimes the story that you set out to tell is not the one that wants
to be told. On a Friday morning in a house in Dublin, I sit down to
speak with three indigenous storytellers from Canada.
They are here for a conference called The Untold Stories of the Past
150 Years/Canada 150 at UCD, about Canadian history and identity.
