Blood Quantum | Don't mess with First Nations People

For TW/CW go to end of show notes for info.
This week we watched and discussed “Blood Quantum”, a zombie flick stuffed full of historical and social commentary. This indigenous take on a familiar genre not only entertained us, but got us feeling way too many feels, as Dalia says. Head shots and splashy gore bring it all together to give us a great undead tale. We loved it! For our Real World Connection, we once again get way real and discuss indigenous conscription and Canada’s ridiculous demands on the First Nations People.
