BAMOSEDA LOGO

AANII! HELLO!

Welcome to the home of Bamoseda!

Bamoseda means “Walking together” in the Anishinabe language. The program is a positive vehicle to showcase Aboriginal issues, arts, culture and community as well as fair and balanced hard-hitting stories to a mainstream audience. It’s important to have a place in mainstream media because Aboriginal news should be integrated into the fabric of the society we live in. (And that’s why I named the program Bamoseda).

I’m both pleased and proud the program is carried by many radio stations with the broadcaster Rogers Communications. Hit the Program button to learn which stations air or podcast the program.

Keep coming back to Bamoseda to learn what’s in the works for the program, what artists will be featured, plus either read or listen to a weekly National Aboriginal newscast.

Feel free to roam around the site, and send me feedback and story ideas.

PROGRAM

Bamoseda takes itself seriously, (but not always, I have to show a sense of humour sometimes!). I strive to include a little bit of everything each week from regions across Canada. Listen for interviews with grassroots leaders and Aboriginal politicians on the latest issues, hear what’s going on in the arts community, and learn about the diverse cultures in the many First Nations, Inuit and Metis communities across the country, plus a story or two from south of the border.

Since Bamoseda features music from Indigenous artists, be forewarned, that this means ALL kinds of music from country to hip hop to blues and jazz plus both contemporary and traditional pow wow tunes....you get the picture! Mostly, Canadian tunes will be played on the program, because we have to support our own.

Bamoseda would like to thank Chad Solomon for the logo illustration and also a big chi-miigwetch to Burnt Project 1 and Sunshine Records for permission to use clips of the song "Lead me home" for production purposes.

 

Bamoseda airs on the following Rogers Radio stations:

Bamoseda is also available on these stations’ websites and on Rogers’ news radio websites including:
