21 Things: Band Councils and Status

Hello everyone! Welcome to another episode of Unrooted, a podcast by The Indigenous Foundation (@theindigenousfoundation) on Instagram. In today's episode, our co-hosts Roaa Abdalla and Isabella Thurston will be introducing their new podcast series, which will be covering around 2 to 3 topics each episode relating to the bestseller, "21 Things You Might Not Know About The Indian Act." In this episode, they will be delving into a number of important topics included in this book, such as the Imposed Elected Chief and Band Council System, and the denial of status for Indigenous women. Please note that many of the topics discussed in this episode may be triggering for some, so proceed with caution.
