CBC Podcasts' Kuper Island tells the stories of four children who were forced to attend one of Canada's most notorious residential schools. The stories can be graphic, heartbreaking and sometimes deal with physical and sexual assault.
•
As the island community about 50 kilometres from Vancouver grappled with the discovery of unmarked graves in the summer of 2021, the podcast team, including host Duncan McCue and producers Martha Troian and Jodie Martinson, were there as the Penelakut Tribe tried to figure out how to properly honour the children taken from them.
•
The eight-episode podcast debuted May 12. It can be found on the CBC Listen app and all podcast streaming services.
•
McCue is an Anishnaabe journalist and a member of the Chippewas of Georgina Island First Nation, and hosts CBC Radio's Helluva Story.
•
Oscar Baker III with CBC Indigenous spoke with McCue about making the podcast, about sharing survivors' stories with care and responsibility, and about the lingering effects of the residential school system on Indigenous families.
