Passion Harvest

WATCH THIS INTERVIEW: https://youtu.be/jA2D4ZTbdIw Nakuset, was chosen from a catalogue of First Nation children and raised in a Jewish family. Between the 1960s and 1985, thousands of Indigenous children were removed from their families – often without the parents' consent – and adopted out under the program, known as "the Sixties Scoop.” Nakuset was taken from her Cree family as a toddler. She was taught to disregard her Indigenous roots and assimilate into a new mould. Eventually, she reached her breaking point and began the arduous search for her biological family. But it also led to the discovery of her own voice — and her mission to support Indigenous people in the face of adversity. Nakuset is the executive director of the native women’s shelter of Montreal and co-director of Resilience Montreal. Recently Nakuset received the Women of the Year award. This is her story, and this is her Passion. If you liked this episode, please do subscribe to our channel and let us inspire you to live a life yo
