Cheryl Maloney on Mi'kmaw Right to Govern Fishery

In Episode 69, we talked to Cheryl Maloney, a Mi'kmaw mother, leader, educator and warrior from Sipekne'katik - formerly known as Indian Brook First Nation. She joined us to share what is happening on the ground in Mi'kma'ki where non-native commercial fisherman are engaged in racist acts of violence, threats, property damage and attempts to stop Mi'kmaw peoples from fishing.
