This is a story of the Sixties Scoop. Of a family torn apart and separated for decades before being reunited.

This is also a story of identity, and the long-lasting effects that these separations can have on a family.

London Free Press reporter Randy Richmond joins the show to discuss how one family was separated by the Sixties Scoop, ultimately re-united and how they had to reckon with their own histories, and come to terms with trauma and tragedy.
