🧵1/ My kid's screen time has gone up wildly over the last 2 years, and I know I'm not the only one. I always have that question in the back of my mind -- is this messing her up?

If you have that question too, this pod is for you. https://t.co/5lgpqd0uYz

Check out the latest @tvo episode of NDN POV about why Indigenous peoples are over-represented in the Canadian criminal justice system. Spoiler alert, it's not because we commit more crimes.

Today we soft launched NDNPOV, my new indigenous explainer series @tvo, with this video on #Pretendians. More episodes to come in the new year. Special thanks to @Rileyyesnomaybe @TheDHTaylor @CriticalPoly

Losing our office is just another gut punch after the cuts/layoffs announced last week. Newsrooms are irreplaceable spaces and we do better journalism inside of them.

The times that I've been able to work out of Pritchard have been amazing and I'll miss it greatly.
