PODCAST
You Can’t Say That in Court!
A podcast about the experiences of survivors of violence navigating the BC family law system
You Can’t Say That in Court! is a podcast that raises awareness about family violence and the challenges survivors face as they navigate the BC family legal system. Join us as we identify these barriers and call for positive changes to be made for survivors across the province.
The podcast is available on all major streaming platforms and is hosted on Podbean.
Why are we having these conversations?
We recognize that the system is colonial and causes harm to families, that disproportionately impacts indigenous peoples. By speaking more widely about these harms, we hope to raise awareness about the challenges survivors face as they navigate the colonial family law system. This podcast is our attempt to collectively identify the barriers and ask for positive changes to be made.
Trigger warning
The podcast series will discuss difficult topics such as gender-based violence and intimate partner violence, including physical, sexual, emotional, psychological and financial abuse. Please be aware that this is a thread that is woven throughout all the episodes, and we hope you will take care of yourselves however you need.
