“If stories bring contour and texture to our lives, then Sense of Place is where you will find some of the most interesting shapes. It’s a rare interviewer that goes into such depth and breadth as Minelle. I thoroughly enjoyed being on the show.”
– Claire Cameron, best-selling author of “The Last Neanderthal” and “The Bear”
SENSE OF PLACE Host Roundhouse Radio 98.3 Vancouver
For three years, I hosted a show at Roundhouse Radio, 98.3 Vancouver. The program was unapologetically anti-racist and feminist in its approach, and I had a great team of folks helping me put it together.
Four interviews a day – give or take – led to about 1500 interviews!
Our approach included bringing on board talented columnists – people like Wade Deisman, a criminology professor at Kwantlen, and Cynthia Callison, an Indigenous lawyer – who gave us the rich opportunity to reach out to folks whose stories are rarely told in mainstream media.
What defines our sense of place here? Listen below to find out.
