By Jena Lynde-Smith<\/p>\n

Five days, 349 students, 11 classrooms, two drop-in sessions, and one faculty gathering \u2013 CBC journalist Duncan McCue left his mark on Carleton University\u2019s School of Journalism.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

McCue spent the last week of January with the School as a practitioner-in-residence. He coached students and faculty on respectful approaches to reporting on Indigenous communities \u2013\u00a0 approaches that could be implemented without sacrificing core journalistic standards.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat means doing our best to understand the cultural protocols of the communities we are reporting on, and doing our best to adapt our journalism practices to work with those communities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

As part of the School\u2019s ongoing efforts toward meeting obligations laid out in the Truth and Reconciliation Commission\u2019s Call to Action 86, journalism program head Susan Harada started talking to McCue about spending time at the school back in the summer.<\/p>\n

\u201cI knew that having Duncan with us as practitioner-in-residence, even for one short week, would be an invaluable opportunity for our journalism students and instructors,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

And invaluable it was.<\/p>\n

Students were asked many questions to get them thinking about stigma.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"

In a drop-in session held for students on Jan. 29, McCue shared his top five tips for reporting on Indigenous communities.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"

His first tip was: \u201cask dumb questions. Don\u2019t feel because you don\u2019t know something that you\u2019re going to offend somebody by just asking them.\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n

Students were excited about the time they were able to spend learning from McCue, and he shared that enthusiasm.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don’t expect any students to immediately become an expert on reporting in Indigenous communities from a one- to two-hour session, it requires opportunities to practice skills and get feedback on their journalism. But many students told me they had learned some valuable tips that gave them some insight into how to improve their approach to reporting in Indigenous communities, and I’m pleased to hear that,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Aside from speaking with students, McCue held an information session for faculty members. He also spent time connecting with members of Carleton\u2019s Indigenous community \u2013 John Kelly and Shelby Lisk. Kelly is an adjunct research professor in journalism, serves as co-director of Carleton University\u2019s Centre for Indigenous Research, Culture, Language and Education (CIRCLE) and is a member of the university\u2019s Aboriginal Education Council, while Lisk is the School\u2019s TVO journalist-in-residence and a reporter for the network\u2019s Indigenous hub.<\/p>\n

McCue\u2019s time as a practitioner-in-residence \u2013 made possible with the support of the Faculty of Public Affairs \u2013 was well spent. When asked if there were any thoughts he\u2019d like to leave with the faculty and students of Carleton\u2019s journalism school, he reinforced his points about acting respectfully.<\/p>\n

\u201cI do suggest we can be more thoughtful and creative about respecting Indigenous understandings of time, gifting, reciprocity, elders and other matters of cultural importance. The result, I hope, is that our news stories will be richer and we will have more of them, as we start to build better long-term relationships with Indigenous communities.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
