How to be a good ancestor

Update: 2025-09-11

Description

Stephanie Sinclair thought it was a parenting win when she explained residential schools to her kindergartener. When it didn't go quite as planned, she looked to the greater community to explore ways of sharing culture and important family histories with future generations. Rosanna speaks with Stephanie and her sister Sara Sinclair as well as award-winning writer, katherena vermette, about what it takes to be a good ancestor.
