Description:

When she began her line of work, Métis archeologist Kisha Supernant was sometimes called a 'grave robber.' With an eye to restorative justice, she was trying to help Indigenous communities locate the graves of children who died at residential schools. Now Supernant is called to find children's graves. She uses both traditional knowledge systems, as well as cutting-edge ground radar techniques to help families and communities begin to heal. It’s a science, she says, of the heart and head.
