55 - "Lost Souls" a Residential School Truth Song on the Path to Reconciliation. Tom Jackson. Canada, North America. 09/28/21
We recognize and celebrate the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation with this special edition of the Pandemy Show!
Dave transcends time and space to speak with Goodwill Ambassador, Tom Jackson, and listen to "Lost Souls," a song about residential school victims. Tom was in Glasgow, Scotland when international reports started circulating of 215 remains of children located at a residential school site in Kamloops, British Columbia in June, 2020. The number of remains found at residential schools sites continues to climb as of September 30, 2021. Tom speaks about the importance of ending the silence around residential schools. It is important we recognize the tragedy, the pain, and the injustice of the past so we can embrace the magic of reconciliation. Tom and Dave discuss his role as Lakanta in the Star Trek the Next Generation episode, Journey's End. Shout out Graham Greene and Will Weaton!
