A Day To Listen 2024

A DAY TO LISTEN 2024

Boom 101.9 is proud to participate in A DAY TO LISTEN 2024 in partnership with The Gord Downie & Chanie Wenjack Fund. Tune in on Monday, September 30, the National Day for Truth & Reconciliation.

This year’s theme is “All My Relations”, which refers to how we are all interconnected. Radio stations throughout Canada will come together to amplify Indigenous voices. For more information, visit adaytolisten.ca.

All My Relations is a term used by Indigenous Peoples of Turtle Island to express that everything is interconnected. Humans, animals, insects, plants, and inanimate objects are all related. We are connected through ancestors, land, communities, air, water – everything.

The Gord Downie & Chanie Wenjack Fund aims to build cultural understanding and create a path toward reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples.

Through the Legacy Schools program, they provide tools and resources to over 8,000 Educators in Canada so they can confidently teach about not only the true history of this country, but also the richness, strength, and diversity of Indigenous cultures in their classrooms.

Three incredible creatives join us as hosts for A Day to Listen 2024 to amplify Indigenous voices and share stories about arts, culture, reconciliation, and all our relations.

Julian Taylor is a decorated singer-songwriter of West Indian and Mohawk descent and joins us as a host for A Day to Listen 2024.
