Author Philippe Blouin on urgency of Mohawk Mother demands of McGill + solidarity - راديو الحارة

This is an interview with author, anthropologist and activist Philippe Blouin speaking on the importance of the Mohawk Mother demands of McGill University and the ways that these local Indigenous demands of justice are connected to a perspective of international solidarity. Phil outlines the ways that McGill University in Montreal has blocked many attempts to halt the construction taking place on old medical grounds at McGill which are widely known and discussed, particularly in Indigenous communities, as having unmarked graves for Indigenous children. These children were lost in the system of forced adoption in Canada known as the 60s scoop where Indigenous family were stripped of their kids by force by the government, this took place at times in collaboration with psychiatric institutions who would experiment on Indigenous children in the context of programs like the CIA backed MK Ultra.
