🕑 Added 2023-10-22 06:22:43 +0000 UTCThis week: another MINI INDIGENA featuring Kim TallBear (professor in the Faculty of Native Studies at the University of Alberta) and Candis Callison (Associate Professor in the Institute for Critical Indigenous Studies and the Graduate School of Journalism at UBC), who joined host/producer Rick Harp Wednesday, October 18 to discuss:
- where things go from here after a majority of Australians voted to reject the constitutional institution of an Indigenous advisory board known as The Voice
- the B.C. Supreme Court rejects a resident association's legal challenge against a massive Vancouver housing development project led by the Squamish Nation
- a new StatsCan report finds those accused of killing Indigenous women and girls are less likely to be charged with first-degree murder than cases involving non-Indigenous victims
- Twitter's in the shitter, and its name change is the least of its problems: has it taken #NativeTwitter down with it?

I think two things are the issue there - there's only as much support for National Sorry Day as there was for the Yes vote, and while some people will get behind stuff like Sorry Day as a gesture, they dig their heels in when anything may actually change, especially government-related :(
