Feature:
- Since it’s International Women’s Day, I’m celebrating all week with interviews I’ve had the pleasure of having with outstanding women. Today, it’s a 2017 interview with Amanda LeBlanc, who dropped by to talk about a program called Under One Sky, an indigenous friendship centre aimed at enriching, supporting and celebrating the culture and lives of Aboriginal youth. In addition, perhaps the first time I had a chance in 2015 to talk with Imelda Perley, the UNB Elder-in-Residence, who talked about recognizing and dealing with the trauma of Residential Schools.
- In addition, I paired it with the song Avocado by Kylie Fox.
