Behind Canada’s ‘moral panic’ around suspected graves at residential schools
Manage episode 430185725 series 2945470
It’s been three years since the bombshell media reports first spread claims there was a “mass grave” found at a former Kamloops residential school, and the truth has been playing catch-up ever since. But as our guest this week explains, anyone with knowledge of history should have known the grisly allegations that residential schools had been disappearing children and secretly disposing of them didn’t make sense. Tom Flanagan, co-author of Grave Error: How the Media Misled Us (and the Truth about Residential Schools), discusses with Brian how the country was seized with moral panic that overrode skeptical questions. Even as the facts come out now, says Flanagan, there are those in power still working to keep false narratives alive. (Recorded June 20, 2024)
