My Father's Daughter

For Fathers' Day, host Jessa McLean invites her Dad to talk about what politicized him as a youth and how his involvement in the trade union movement shaped how he understood power structures, politics and his own purpose.

The two sound off on their own experiences with the NDP, which are unsurprisingly similar.

Its a discussion about passing down working class consciousness through generations and what we choose to do with that knowledge.
