May 28, 2021 - BIPOC Vaccine Hesitancy; Indigenous Food Harvesting Round Table

Didsbury, Alberta-based physician Dr. Akin Osakuade clarifies the need for Black, Indigenous and People of Colour to get vaccinated. He's seen vaccine hesitancy amongst these communities and he explains how the polio campaigns he helped with in Nigeria inform his work now.  

Edmonton Public Library's Elder in Residence Jo-Ann Saddleback, Métis educator, writer and harvester Conor Kerr plus Governor General Award-winning author David A. Robertson discuss Indigenous traditions surrounding hunting, foraging and trapping. The panel explore the impacts residential school and the foster system have on the passing of wisdom from generation to generation.

Plus, it's Friday—time for another edition of Trash Talk presented by Local Waste!
