Sports, Sovereignty, and Reconciliation

Willie Littlechild was a commissioner for the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, Ava Hill was the Elected Chief of the 56th and 57th Six Nations Elected Council.

Today marks the tenth anniversary of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s final report. We’ve seen significant albeit imperfect progress since and there’s much more for us to do together.

On this episode of Uncommons, I’m joined by Ava Hill and Willie Littlechild, two incredible Indigenous leaders. We talk about the state of reconciliation and what real partnership could and should look like, with a specific focus on their work to advance Indigenous participation in sport.

Ava Hill is a former Six Nations Chief, and Willie Littlechild is a former TRC commissioner, former MP, and residential school survivor.
