For decades, Thomas King was considered to be one of the most prominent Indigenous authors and creators. The news that he has no Indigenous ancestry came as a shock to many people this week.

But not to Jesse Wente, a prominent Anishinaabe writer and storyteller-in-residence at Toronto Metropolitan University. Wente worked as a producer on the screen adaptation of King’s book, "The Inconvenient Indian." Though ancestry issues came up for other people working on the film, King's never came into question. But Wente had wondered about his friend’s ancestry.

The confirmation that King is not Indigenous still emotionally affected Wente, even if he wasn't totally surprised by it. Today on Commotion, he joins Elamin Abdelmahmoud to work through the complicated feelings and how he’s grappling with the fallout.
