Discovery audio / Canadian Broadcasting Corporation
70 conversations. 15 Indigenous communities. 11 words with the power to hurt. In this first episode, host Kaniehti:io Horn decolonizes the word, 'discovery'. Christopher Columbus, Jacques Cartier, even Leif Erikson all claimed to have found a 'new' land. But by the time they reached the shores of the Americas, millions of people had already been living here for at least 11,000 years. The Doctrine of Discovery - a papal bull from the 1400's - justified the dispossession and displacement of the First Peoples from their lands. Together, we'll explore words that are now helping us to rewrite our history. Telling our Twisted Histories is a podcast series made by Indigenous people for anyone who wants to start decolonizing their vocabulary - and their histories - one word at a time. Telling Our Twisted Histories is a Terre Innue and CBC co-production.
