Scooped from my Home at 4 Years Old by the Government

Scooped from my Home at 4 Years Old by the Government

Thousands of Indigenous children were taken from their families during what became known as the Sixties Scoop, a government policy that saw children removed from their homes and placed into foster care or adopted into non-Indigenous families across Canada, the United States, and beyond. Many lost their language, culture, identity, and connection to their communities.

On this week's episode of Activate & Illuminate, Mel sits down with Sixties Scoop survivor Robin Linn to discuss her personal journey, the lasting impacts of these policies, and the resilience it takes to reclaim identity after generations of displacement.

This is a powerful conversation about truth, healing, and understanding a chapter of Canadian history that continues to affect Indigenous families today.
