Transcript (PDF) available here.
We're continuing where we left off last week to talk about the history of so-called "residential schools" in KKKanada and the remains of #215Children that were recently discovered at the former Kamloops Residential School. This episode was recorded before the recent discovery of an additional 104 graves at the former residential school in Brandon, Manitoba.

Do The Kids Know? is a monthly series of discussions between community workers and educators, Prakash and Kristen, that unpack race, media, popular culture, and politics in KKKanada (That’s Canada spelled with three K’s) from an anti-colonial perspective.

Our goal is to bring nuance to sensationalist media as well as to uncover the ways in which white supremacy, capitalism, and colonialism is shaping our movements and behaviours.

Keep tuning in to be a part of the conversation… don’t be a kid who doesn’t know!
