Yesterday was a PD Day, so my 11-year-old was home all day. My scheduled guest yesterday morning was the Executive Director at Na-Me-Res Steve Teekens, who works closely with homeless and marginalized communities in Toronto.
Here are some facts about Steve:
- He's the grandchild of a residential school survivor
- He's the child of someone who survived the Sixties Scoop
My youngest son had questions for Steve about both, so he co-hosted the episode.
I had questions about:
- Na-Me-Res
- Land acknowledgements
- Buffy Sainte-Marie
- Gord Downie
Together, we had a fabulous conversation with Steve and I was so proud of my boy.
Here's the video evidence.
