What to watch and listen for a better understanding of Indigenous Peoples
To provide food for thought, to meet Indigenous Peoples and to better understand them, we suggest a few articles, sites and productions to explore.
On the occasion of the second National Day for Truth and Reconciliation Holiday , CBC/Radio-Canada offered a variety of programs, interviews and reports to highlight the cultures and talents of Indigenous Peoples:

To see or hear direct or indirect testimonies of people affected by the legacy of residential schools, we suggest among others:

« Laissez-nous le temps de guérir » | Le pape François au Canada | Radio-Canada.ca
Parole autochtone 224 - Les victimes des pensionnats - YouTube
APTN, the first national Indigenous broadcaster, makes it possible to read, see and hear news with an Indigenous perspective:
The "Espaces autochtones" section of Radio-Canada is also worth consulting, both for its news coverage and its columns and analyses:

Melissa Mollen Dupuis' video column, Parole autochtone, in Radio-Canada's "Espaces autochtones" section, offers a personal point of view on Aboriginal issues that is interesting, relevant and nuanced, with sometimes complex concepts well-publicized. Among her recent columns you should not miss:
- A review of the significant and transformative events of the summer of 2022, including the historic appointment of Justice Michelle O'Bonsawin, an Abenaki from the Odanak First Nation, to the Supreme Court of Canada: Parole autochtone 270 : Un été chargé pour les Autochtones | Info | ICI Radio-Canada.ca
- A look back at the papal visit and the importance of the apology offered : Parole autochtone 268 : Retour sur la visite papale | Info | ICI Radio-Canada.ca
For music lovers, the show mâmawi music by Moe Clark, on Radio-Canada's "Espaces autochtones", opens a window on the Indigenous music scene:

A must-see is Jaime Black's REDress project, which aims to be a "aesthetic response to the more than the 1000 missing and murdered Aboriginal women in Canada":
