I recently watched the PBS mini series, Little Bird (2023). It follows the story of Bezhig Little Bird, who was adopted as a young child by a family in Canada, as she decides to search for her birth family.

Without giving away too much, she discovers that she was part of the “60s Scoop”, a systematic program to remove indigenous children from their families. This is Bezhig’s “returning home story, reclamation of her identity story, finding where she belongs story – while celebrating this very untold version of indigenous love, indigenous families, and celebrating home through an indigenous lens“.

I give it a big recommend. Story, visuals, & MUSIC – a beautifully human and powerful portrayal of this story.

If you decide to watch this series, please join Z’s community forum to share what resonated with you. By widely sharing vision and strategy towards mutual aims in solidarity with each other – we will change everything.
