Episode 9: Reconciliation In Education
On this episode, we speak with two women passionate about education. We pose the question — has reconciliation happened within the education system? Has it happened within the lives of these educators?
We’ll close off our episode with a track from Saskatoon MC Eekwol. This is “Waniska” featuring production from Boogey The Beat– check out more of her music at facebook.com/eekwol.
