Welcome to a special four-part podcast collaboration from Eve, Intersected, and the Podcast Learning Network at Brock University to mark National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
Episode one features graduate student Ryanne Logan sharing her experience as an Indigenous athlete from Eelünaapéewi Lahkéewiit with hosts Shannon Kerwin and Nwakerendu (Kay) Waboso.
In episode two, host Shannon Kerwin speaks first with Marc St. Pierre of Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group (OSEG) about how the organization implements the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) Calls to Action.
Episode three features host Shannon Kerwin in conversation with Dean Taylor and Brad Smith of Hockey Nova Scotia about how their organization is implementing the TRC Calls to Action, as well as their personal experiences with diversity in sport.
Finally, episode four brings Ryanne, Shannon, and Nwakerendu (Kay) back together to discuss the questions and themes arising from the interviews and how we move forward in continuing reconciliation in sport.
