Claudette Osborne was in danger. And after making several desperate phone calls to her family and a disturbing voicemail, she went missing. But this isn't the only tragedy the Osborne family has suffered...Not only are all the women in today's episode Indigenous, they are ALL related.
This week's case is a stark reminder of the ongoing epidemic of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls in Canada AND the United States. It’s a race, identity and gender based genocide that cannot be ignored. A recent inquiry found that Indigenous women and girls are 12 times more likely to be murdered or to go missing than members of any other demographic group in Canada. With our podcast, we try to shed a light on these cases because they don't receive nearly enough media coverage and are extremely underrepresented and underacknowledged.
