Our esteemed speakers, newspaper founder John Lagimodiere, photojournalist Candice Ward, and content writer Stephanie Joe, discuss their own experiences as media professionals and provide their knowledge on how to cover Indigenous stories—sharing where we’ve been; where we are; and where we need to go for true reconciliation in the media.
