First Nations people are 4 percent of the Canadian population but make up about one quarter of the prison population.

This is just one more example of systemic racism.

Now a new groundbreaking investigation by the Globe and Mail crime and justice reporter Tom Cardoso takes a hard look at years worth of government data to reveal the impact of that systemic racism in the prison system and the real damage that it does to First Nations people.

A big thanks goes out to the Red Dog Singers of Treaty 4 Territory in Saskatchewan for our theme music.
