Audiocassette Summary

Scope and Content: Radio announcer Jennifer [?] introduces CBC radio broadcaster Paul Mackan in an episode of “The Other Shelf”, during which he provides a review of Bridget Moran’s books Judgement at Stoney Creek and Stoney Creek Woman and also provides a review of a third book, Aboriginal Peoples and Politics, by Paul Tennant. Mackan describes Moran’s books as ‘a great banquet’ that speaks to the strength of the human heart. He describes the story of Mary John as told to Bridget Moran; Mary John, a Carrier Indian woman, born in 1913 who describes growing up in poverty and prejudice in Stoney Creek, BC. Paul is intrigued by the ‘native way’ of storytelling and how it involves the listener in the story; and how Native people speak of events that happen to ‘our people’ – that tragedies are a shared experience. Judgment at Stoney Creek, Paul describes as a “tale of native people facing justice system in 1976’ and notes that Moran states this was the first case of prejudice in the justice system to reach national prominence. Mackan explains that the Native People of Stoney Creek had to fight to get an inquest into the accident which killed a 9 month pregnant native woman. Mackan notes that both of Moran’s books are recommended reading for high school students in both BC and the Yukon.He then proceeds to review Tennant’s book. He notes that all 3 books come at a significant time in white-native relations in Canada and refers to the Oka Crisis. He concludes that we must not only do “justice” by Aboriginal Peoples in Canada but “we must do ‘right’ by Aboriginal Peoples in Canada
