Professor, School of Journalism and Communication at Carleton University

Email: Duncan.McCue@carleton.ca

McCue is an award-winning CBC broadcaster and leading advocate for fostering the connection between journalism and Indigenous communities.

McCue’s work at Carleton specializes in Indigenous journalism and storytelling. In addition, McCue worked to launch a new journalism skills certificate on the ground in Indigenous communities.

McCue was the host of Helluva Story on CBC Radio and was also the driving force behind Kuper Island, a remarkable eight-part podcast series on residential schools.

Over the years, he developed a unique online resource, Reporting in Indigenous Communities, which inspired his latest work, a new textbook called Decolonizing Journalism: A Guide to Reporting in Indigenous Communities. McCue is also the author of The Shoe Boy: A Trapline Memoir, which recounts a season he spent in a hunting camp with a Cree family in northern Quebec as a teenager.

McCue is Anishinaabe, a member of the Chippewas of Georgina Island First Nation in southern Ontario.
