Episode description

Life in Attawapiskat is undeniably hard. But it's where Juno-nominated Cree musician Adrian Sutherland chooses to live and raise his family, even though he has means to leave. In his debut memoir, "The Work of our Hands," he paints a portrait of his world that headlines — about poverty, despair and a decaying water system — fail to capture. We talk to him about how the hard work required to survive in Attawapiskat allows him to find true meaning and freedom.
