Natashia Wynter

Uh Oh! Did You Know is a podcast that investigates enslavement in Canada. I dive in with experts to really understand and unpack a heavy topic that isn’t generally at the forefront of conversations. I hope to uncover stories that will allow anyone who listens to learn a thing or two about the uniqueness of slavery in Canada. I learned and discovered things that have made me realize that Black Canadian history is important to Canadian history. I hope this changes your perspective on how we view slavery in Canada. I am your host, Natashia Wynter. Let's dive in!

    EPISODE TWO: ENSLAVEMENT & FAITH

    Faith and religion are sacred and personal journeys, not so for the enslaved in Canada. Nevertheless, the Code Noir, a slavery rulebook, played a crucial role in colonial life in New France. In this episode, I speak to Natasha Henry, Dr. Charmaine Nelson, Lori-Ann Dennie-Bent, and Yves Frenette.
