| Summary: | McGill Journal of Medicine (MJM) MedTalks is a Podcast series where members of the McGill Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences are interviewed on topics related to career, research, advocacy and more. The aim of MedTalks is to open a space where faculty members can share information and advice for trainees in healthcare and medical sciences. In this episode, McGill medical student Susan Wang interviews Dr. Samir Shaheen-Hussain about his new book, “Fighting for a Hand to Hold* Confronting Medical Colonialism Against Indigenous Children in Canada”. The conversation is divided into three parts: 1) personal questions about Dr. Shaheen-Hussain’s work in social justice, 2) questions regarding the book, in particular on aspects of anti-indigenous systematic racism and its interplay in Canada’s current healthcare system, and 3) advocacy and burnout-related advice for medical trainees. This podcast interview is also accompanied by a book review and reflection, titled “A Medical Student’s Perspective on Fighting for a Hand to Hold”, available at mjmmed.com. The show notes include a transcript of the podcast, time stamps, and resources and references. This podcast is produced and edited by MJM’s social media team, Tom Lee, Saman Arfaie and Susan Wang and transcribed by S. Wang.
