Back in November, the FOLD team read 21 Thing You May Not Know About the Indian Act by Bob Joseph. This bonus episode of Into the FOLD is our discussion of the book, the thoughts and questions it raised, and how it has added to our understanding of Indigenous relations.

As a note, we acknowledge that none of us on the team are Indigenous, and so we've to come to this book and this topic with a spirit of learning. We may get things wrong or say things out of ignorance, though that is not our intention. We welcome comments and feedback from our Indigenous listeners and hope that we can engage in conversation with grace. Thank you.
