Podcasts about truth and reconciliation

In this episode, I talk with Dr. Chris Hoklotubbe and Dr. Danny Zacharias about their book Reading the Bible on Turtle Island and how Indigenous wisdom invites us to see Scripture through a different lens. We explore how the Bible, written by tribal people deeply connected to land and kinship, calls us back into right relationship with Creator, creation, and one another. Chris and Danny share stories that connect the Trail of Tears to the exile in Babylon, the teachings of Jesus to the call of Jubilee, and how truth-telling and reconciliation are part of our ongoing discipleship. This conversation challenges the transactional faith that has shaped so much of Western Christianity and reclaims a relational vision of faith grounded in love, harmony, and gratitude. It's a reminder that reading the Bible through Indigenous eyes doesn't just reveal something new about the text, it helps us remember who we are and how to walk the bright path of Jesus together.H. Daniel Zacharias (PhD, Highland Theological College/Aberdeen) is a Cree-Anishinaabe/Métis and Austrian man originally from Winnipeg, Manitoba (Treaty One territory), with ancestors also residing in Treaty Two, Treaty Three, and Treaty Five territories.

Our lead stories: a look at some of the events across Canada marking the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

Guest: Steve Teekens, Executive Director, Na-Me-Res, a Toronto-based Indigenous-run non-profit that provides temporary, transitional and permanent housing Indigenous people make up less than one per cent of Toronto's population, but about 15 percent of the city's homeless. Nationally, they are around 5 percent of the population yet account for more than a third of those without homes. These numbers reflect the ongoing legacy of residential schools, the Sixties Scoop, and systems that continue to fail Indigenous communities. For Indigenous men especially, homelessness is closely tied to untreated mental illness and addiction. Advocates say ending Indigenous homelessness isn't just policy; it's a part of reconciliation. Na-Me-Res, an Indigenous-led organization in Toronto, has been working on shelters, transitional programs, and affordable housing. On this National day for Truth and Reconciliation, we speak to the organization's Executive Director Steve Teekens —to talk about the crisis — and to share his own family's story as the grandson of residential school survivors and the son of a Sixties Scoop survivor. The Indian Residential Schools Crisis Line is available 24-hours a day for anyone experiencing pain or distress as a result of a residential school experience. Support is available at 1-866-925-4419.

On this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel speaks with First Nations visual artist and public policy expert Lou-ann Neel by telephone from, as she says, "the lands of the Lekwungen, also known as Victoria, BC" for history and context of Canada's National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. The 2025 observance is taking place on Tuesday, September 30, 2025. Ms. Neel talks about treaties, unceded lands and the destructive "residential schools" at the root of the observances taking place in across Canada on September 30 - which is also known as "Orange Shirt Day." According to the Canadian government, the day honors "the children who never returned home and Survivors of residential schools, as well as their families and communities . . . [p]ublic commemoration of the tragic and painful history and ongoing impacts of residential schools is a vital component of the reconciliation process." There is no similar observance in the United States, where similar residential schools were also in operation for decades.

What's open and closed in the Halifax area on National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

This special episode is released for Canada's National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. A moment to listen, learn, and recognize the strength of Indigenous knowledge—and the partnerships that bring science and tradition together. At Ocean Networks Canada (ONC), partnership with Indigenous communities is more than a project requirement — it's a way of working. ONC supports community-led monitoring, shares technology and training, and works alongside Elders, youth, and knowledge holders to weave Indigenous knowledge and ocean science together. These collaborations help shape research, strengthen resilience, and ensure communities benefit first from the data collected in their territories. One milestone in this journey was OceanObs'19 in Hawaii, where ONC helped bring Indigenous voices to the international stage. For the first time, Indigenous knowledge was presented as a formal part of the global ocean observing framework — changing the conversation about how science and traditional knowledge can work hand in hand. In this episode, Lyne Morissette speaks with: Ken Paul – Mi'kmaq leader and advocate for Indigenous rights in ocean governance Pieter Romer – Indigenous Community Liaison at ONC, storyteller, and documentary filmmaker Maia Hoeberechts – Associate Director of Learning & Engagement at ONC Together, they explore how Indigenous knowledge and Western science meet on the water: Building trust and partnerships that last Stories passed down through generations as “data” in their own right Youth stepping onto research vessels and carrying both heritage and science forward Facing challenges like climate change and fisheries with two knowledge systems, side by side

Relations between Canada and Indigenous Peoples have certainly evolved since The Agenda first began covering these issues in 2006. There was Stephen Harper's historic apology to former students of Residential Schools in 2008. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission that followed, led by the late Senator Murray Sinclair. The Idle No More movement of the early 2010s. And much more. As we mark National Indigenous History Month, we thought we'd look back at some of these flashpoints in our history, and find out how much progress has been made. From Kanesatake First Nation, council Chief Serge Simon; Cynthia Wesley-Esquimaux, Chair on Truth and Reconciliation at Lakehead University; Karyn Pugliese, journalist and instructor at Carleton University; and Riley Yesno, PhD candidate in political science and Indigenous studies at the University of Toronto, join Steve Paikin to discuss.Chief Serge Simon; Cynthia Wesley-Esquimaux, Chair on Truth and Reconciliation at Lakehead University; Karyn Pugliese, journalist and instructor at Carleton University; and Riley Yesno, PhD candidate in political science and Indigenous studies at the University of Toronto, join Steve Paikin to discuss.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We start out by debating who's responsible for Dan's audio snafus last time before digging into a various odds and ends, such as the Chief Justice's toast at the Supreme Court Historical Society dinner and President Trump's renunciation of Leonard Leo and the Federalist Society. We then try to make sense of the DIG in Labcorp v. Davis and see whether our predictions about Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc. v. Estados Unidos Mexicanos panned out. 

We look at the antipatriotic reaction by the US media and left to Donald Trump confronting South African President Cyril Ramaphosa with the truth about white farmer murders. Then we talk in depth about judging human books by their covers and how to do it. Potpourri du Moquerie rounds up the show with borderlines vs cops, trannies at Yellowstone, and the Autopen.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Lauren Francis-Sharma was a young law student interning in Johannesburg in 1996 when she was given the opportunity to observe portions of the Truth and Reconciliation Amnesty Hearings, which were set up to expose the horrors of apartheid in South Africa. Listening to testimony of atrocities and knowing that these public confessions came with exoneration changed her. She filled legal pad after legal pad with stories and kept them for decades. “I think it's brilliant, in some respects — how a country moves forward from such an atrocious history. What can we do to heal a nation?” she tells Kerri Miller on this week's Big Books and Bold Ideas. “But I was left asking myself: Is this enough? Do people feel satisfied by truth alone?” And in fact, that's the question at the center of Francis-Sharma's taut new thriller, “Casualties of Truth.” Shifting between South Africa in the late 1990s and Washington, D.C., in 2018, the novel tells the story of Prudence Wright who is forced to confront a violent past she has tried to ignore. But violence begats violence, and trauma begats trauma. How can one truly atone? Guest: Lauren Francis-Sharma is the author of “‘Til the Well Runs Dry” and “Book of the Little Axe,” as well as the assistant director of the Bread Loaf Writer's Conference and a recovering corporate attorney. Her new thriller is “Casualties of Truth.” Subscribe to Big Books and Bold Ideas with Kerri Miller podcast on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, RSS or anywhere you get your podcasts.Subscribe to the Thread newsletter for the latest book and author news and must-read recommendations.

DISABILITY WITH POSSIBILITY This week on Outlook we're starting, along with our mission on this show toward recognising intersectionalities and identity, we begin this episode by talking about the date this one originally airs: December 30th. In Canada, the last day of September is known as Orange Shirt Day since 2013 and now Canada's National Day For Truth and Reconciliation since 2021. We emphasise, during a time of the year when school is generally back in session for local students, how the government and church run residential schools for Indigenous children were less like schools and more like concentration camps. We acknowledge these things while remembering all the innocent children made to suffer within that so-called educational (more like colonial) system. Yet also, we celebrate joy in community and culture, while sharing too about the acts of community and solidarity between Indigenous and non Indigenous people with a story from an Ontario school for the blind and a current act of sharing it participated in bringing together the land and Stewards of both the W Ross Macdonald School for the Blind and Mohawk Institute Residential School now known as Woodland Cultural Centre. In the second half we replay some audio of a recent Disability Without Poverty town hall community meeting put on locally in London we were invited to attend. We keep wanting to become a bit more involved in the things happening close to home and with this set of audio clips, we split up in the group to meet others in the community, we heard so many personal stories of the lives of people living with disability and those who love and advocate for and with them, as we play what we said that day when it was our turn as this country heads toward a promised Canadian Disability Benefit, as imperfect and even minuscule as it might be. It's the DISABILITY WITH POSSIBILITY edition of a Mixed Bag show.

This episode of Hawk Droppings focuses on the Day of Truth and Reconciliation and the history of Native American / Indigenous boarding schools in the United States / Canada. Hawk, shares his recent journey of learning about the indigenous peoples who originally inhabited the land where he now lives in Marin County, California. He discusses the Coast Miwok tribe and his efforts to educate himself about their history and culture.Hawk then moves into the dark history of Native American / Indigenous boarding schools, which were established by the governments of Canada and the United States, often in collaboration with the Catholic Church. These schools forcibly removed indigenous children from their families and communities, subjected them to physical, emotional, and sexual abuse, and attempted to eradicate their cultural identities. He discusses recent discoveries of mass graves at former school sites and the ongoing investigations into these atrocities.The episode concludes with Hawk reflecting on his own privilege and the importance of acknowledging and learning from this painful history. He emphasizes the need for truth, reconciliation, and continued awareness of ongoing issues affecting indigenous communities, such as the crisis of missing and murdered indigenous women and girls.

Today marks the fourth National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, which is a good chance to assess where we stand on the 94 Calls to Action. After significant early progress, the past two years have seen ... not much. So why has Canada fallen behind?Has the government changed its focus?

What will it take to address gun violence in America, and what might peacemaking have to say about it? These last few weeks, we have taken some time to hear from visionary peacemakers addressing the issue in creative, imaginative ways. In the last podcast of this series, we are joined by our good friends from the Selma Center for Nonviolence, Truth, and Reconciliation. Ainka Sanders Jackson and Lydia Chatmon share with us what these three values mean within the context of gun violence. They explain the racial and economic layers that are at the root of gun violence in America, and offer us a restorative pathway forward. Chatmon and Jackson call us to interrogate where we are complicit in these realities, but they also remind us of our agency and responsibility to be a part of the solution. While this conversation was recorded over a year ago, we think it remains a helpful resource for folks looking for accessible entry points into the conversation of gun violence. Read and share the Principles and Practices of Peacemaking Follow Telos on Instagram @thetelosgroupIf you're enjoying the podcast, become a monthly donor to Telos!Leave a rating and review on Apple podcasts or SpotifySubscribe to the Telos NewsletterLearn more about the Selma Center for Nonviolence, Truth, and Reconciliation

 Today's episode offers a powerful example of courage, peace, and forgiveness. Our story looks back thirty years, to one of the most violent periods in modern history — the genocide against the Tutsi — and to the resilience and wisdom of the Rwandan spirit and heart. On April 6, 1994, beautiful Rwanda, known as the Land of a Thousand Hills, became a hell on Earth. Between April and July 1994, hundreds of thousands of Rwandans were slaughtered in a horrifying frenzy of state-sponsored terror. Freddy Mutanguha, an ethnic Tutsi, was just eighteen years old when the genocide began. Today, Freddy shares the story of his unimaginable losses, the miracle of his survival, and his life's work nurturing peace, forgiveness, and reconciliation in his country and across the world.  Read the transcript of this episode Learn more about the Kigali Genocide Memorial and the Aegis Trust Subscribe to Stories of Impact wherever you listen to podcasts Find us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube Share your comments, questions and suggestions at info@storiesofimpact.org Supported by Templeton World Charity Foundation
