“I really appreciated this podcast for these truths about what’s happened in Canada to children in residential schools need to be spoken out loud, heard and held by all. I was a bit disappointed in the hosts response as the people shared their traumatic experiences ... the way he gasped and responded to his speakers. Made me wonder if the host had the capacity to really hold what happened. Gasping is all it takes sometimes to quiet people who have been traumatized as they can feel shame and be confused about do I have to take care of my listener now? Additionally, when one speaker says he hopes the abusers will be prosecuted the host responds and appears to to be questioning the speaker by pointing out the abusers are old… as if age should make a difference in accountability. The podcast host needs to learn more about being a witness to trauma before taking on such a project.”
