Filmmaker Michelle Latimer receives backlash for Indigenous ancestry controversy | The Social

The Globe and Mail has an interview with filmmaker Michelle Latimer, who was behind the now cancelled CBC show 'Trickster', and came under fire after questions arose about her claimed heritage, and ties to the Kitigan Zibi Nation. Latimer commissioned a genealogical report that proves her Indigenous ancestry, but there's been backlash from people who say ancestral ties and lived experience are two different things.
