Colonial Violence in the Present (w/ Mylan Tootoosis)
On July 17, 2022, Colby Tootoosis was attacked and beaten by settlers as he returned a trailer to a friend. The assault, which was caught on camera and happened not far from where settler farmer Gerald Stanley shot and killed Colten Boushie in August 2016, laid bare the juxtaposition between how colonial law is applied to Indigenous people and how it is applied to settlers. aLEX talks with Colby’s brother, Mylan, about the assault and how it fits into the context of Indigenous-settler relations in Saskatchewan. Mylan is a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Saskatchewan and can be found at the Radicle Narrative podcast: https://radiclenarrative.com/.
