Resistance Radio with John and Regan

Resistance Radio 10/6/22; The Scale and Scope of ”Indian Boarding Schools”

This podcast comes sandwiched between last week's National Remembrance Day for Victims of Indian Boarding Schools and Indigenous Peoples Day. and even with this attention, I'm not sure people, including Native people, fully grasp the scope, scale and harm associated with these federally funded and church run institutions.

Resistance Radio with John Kane 9/29/22; Our ExistenceIs Not Guaranteed!

There is a saying that says "Our existence is the resistance." And that is because our existence is not guaranteed. We fight to survive. Our population was eliminated by 99% by colonization. No other population has survived such an onslaught.

Resistance Radio with John Kane 9/22/22; A Native person serving in the colonial governments is NOT serving Native people.

It was recently said that for the first time in 230 years Congress will have full indigenous representation. No! Not even close. If a Native person is successful at gaining enough white support to get elected, it's those people that they represent. Their loyalty is with party and the people who elected them, NOT with Native peoples who they may be related to.

Resistance Radio 9/15/22; 40 years and we are still fighting NYS over our tobbaco sales.

One of our major tobacco manufacturers settled a fight with NYS by paying $56 million. The State just never stops coming after us!

Resistance Radio with John Kane 9/8/22; Of course it’s racism!

There seems to be a persistent aversion to acknowledging that the centuries of atrocities that Native people have experienced is the result of racism.

Resistance Radio with John Kane 8/29/22; Famed Psychologist Philip Zimbardo is my guest!

Dr. Philip Zimbardo joins me for the program to refute those using his name and misrepresenting his work to promote the use of Native mascots and to discuss his years of research, including his famed Stanford Prison Experiment and his current Heroic Imagination Project.

Resistance Radio 8/17/22; Donna Fann-Boyle joins me for the program.

My sister in arms, Donna Fann-Boyle, joins me to update me on her fights from PA and to compare notes.

Resistance Radio 8/11/22; The Doctrine of Christian Discovery

I haven't given a whole show to explaining what the Doctrine of Discovery is in quite a while. So here we go. Feel free to do your own research but allow me to explain how we were and are impacted by this racist church doctrine.

Resistance Radio with John Kane 7/28/22; Yeah! That Pope thing.

What a mockery it was to place a headdress on this guy's head. And NO! He didn't apologize for the role of the church or the clergy in the abuse and genocide of Canada's "residential schools."

Resistance Radio 7/21/22; Racism and Genocide!

These are not the same and both are largely misunderstood
