The new CBC Podcast series Kuper Island tells
the story of four students: three who survived and one who didn't. They
attended one of Canada's most notorious residential schools — where
unsolved deaths, abuse and lies haunt the community and the survivors to
this day.
Kuper Island is an eight-episode series hosted by journalist Duncan McCue. You can find it on CBC Listen or wherever you get your podcasts.
To continue the conversation, Kuper Island
host McCue and producers Martha Troian and Jodie Martinson connected
with CBC Books to share some of the books that impacted them when
reflecting on and researching the residential school system.
