A Shared Struggle: Harry LaForme, Canada's First Indigenous Court Judge, on First Nations and Jewish Communities.
Join us for a powerful and eye-opening conversation with Harry Laforme, Canada's first Indigenous Court Judge. In this episode, we delve into his unique perspective as an advocate for both the Indigenous and Jewish communities, and how he recognizes the ancient and undeniable right to self-determination of the Jewish people in their ancestral homeland of Israel.
Laforme, a member of the Mississaugas of the New Credit First Nation, shares his personal journey and explains why he feels a profound kinship with the Jewish people. He draws powerful parallels between the shared histories of suffering, persecution, and resilience.
This conversation explores how communities forged through collective trauma often find common ground and gravitate towards each other.
Tune in to hear how this pioneering voice is challenging conventional narratives and offering a new path toward understanding, solidarity, and healing.
