On today's episode Jessica hosts Dr. Jason De León, professor of Anthropology and Chicana/o Studies at the University of California, Los Angeles. Dr. De León talks about how he found himself at a cross roads with traditional archaeology and completely changed his career to better match his values. We discuss his work with the Undocumented Migration Project, conducting archaeological, ethnographic, and forensic anthropology methods to better understand the U.S.-Mexico border, as well as his Hostile Terrain exhibition. We talk about the complicated ethics involved, civil disobedience in the face of injustice, representation, and what we can all do in the face of this structural violence. A fascinating look into how to use anthropology to address current issues in a new way.LinksJason Patrick De Leon websiteDr. De Leon's Twitter: @jason_p_deleonHostile TerrainUndocumented Migration ProjectThe Land of Open Graves: Living and Dying on the Migrant Trail (Jason's Book)Links to the Radiolab Border Trilogy featuring Dr. De LeónArticle about how companies are profiting from the detention campsContactJessica@livingheritageanthropology.org@livingheritageA@LivingHeritageResearchCouncil

On today's episode, Jessica talks with Friar Francisco Nahoe and Mata'u Rapu about how a priest and a filmmaker got involved in repatriation efforts for Rapa Nui (Easter Island). We learn how 19th and 20th Century European sheepherding ventures circulated Polynesian crania from Rapa Nui across the world; how UNESCO recognition can harm indigenous communities; the close relationship between environmental protection, cultural heritage, and indigenous rights; and most of all how the Rapanui people themselves provide an outstanding example of resilience in the face of environmental precarity and Euro-American colonization. Finally, we explore the challenges of living up to the leadership and legacy of both ancient ancestors and living elders in the effort to find a collective, multi-generational Polynesian voice.Transcripts For rough transcripts of this episode go to https://www.archpodnet.com/heritagevoices/91Links Heritage Voices on the APN Eating up Easter Eating up Easter on PBS (Amazon) Eating up Easter (PBS) British museum public access catalogue Moai: Contest Objects from the British Museum Collection Article about British Museum Employee who Stole Artifacts from Collection Another film made by another Rapanui documentary filmmaker, Leo Pakarati, about Hoa Haka Nana Ia.

On today's episode, Jessica talks with Dr. Jacelle Ramon-Sauberan (Tohono O'odham Nation Education Development Liaison at Kitt Peak National Observatory; Tohono O'odham from Wa:k Ceksan [the San Xavier District]) about her work fostering relationships between the Tohono O'odham Nation and Kitt Peak National Observatory through tours for Tribal Departments, programs, and schools, serving as a point of contact for tribal members and the Nation as a whole, sharing Tohono O'odham history and culture with general public visitors, and continuing to build on the promises made during the original agreements to lease the land from the Tohono O'odham Nation. Additionally, Dr. Ramon-Sauberan (or Dr. J.) works with the larger Astronomy community on how to be a good neighbor to Indigenous communities. Throughout Dr. J's career, her focus has always been on providing resources and serving Indigenous communities, from journalism that focused on Indigenous people making a difference in the world to developing her dissertation that centered community voices as a resource on land and water rights in Wa:k Ceksan (the San Xavier District).Transcripts For rough transcripts of this episode go to https://www.archpodnet.com/heritagevoices/90Links Heritage Voices on the APN Kitt peak article Kitt Peak National Observatory Kitt Peak National Observatory Hosts Open Night for the Tohono O'odham Nation (article) Tohono O'odham Community College Mission Garden Friends of Saguaro National Park Arizona Humanities speakers group Arizona Humanities Lecture (Video), “Caretakers of the Land: A Story of Farming and Community in San Xavier with Jacelle Ramon-Sauberan” Arizona Humanities Lecture (Video), “Food Sovereignty in the Desert: Reclaiming Traditional O'odham Foodways with Dr. Jacelle Ramon-Sauberan” NOIRLabAstro Lecture (Video), “Information On The Tohono O'odham History And Culture” San Xavier Cooperative Farm Tohono O'odham Young Voices Podcast EpisodeContact JessicaJessica@livingheritageanthropology.org@livingheritageA@LivingHeritageResearchCouncilArchPodNet APN Website: https://www.archpodnet.com APN on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/archpodnet APN on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/archpodnet APN on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/archpodnet Tee Public StoreAffiliates Motion

On today's episode, Jessica talks with Dr. Jessica Black (Gwich'in; Associate Vice Chancellor and Associate Professor in the College of Indigenous Studies at the University of Alaska Fairbanks) and Dr. Courtney Carothers (Professor of Fisheries in the College of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences at the University of Alaska Fairbanks). Dr. Black and Dr. Carothers discuss their work, alongside student colleagues and Alaska Native peoples, to highlight Indigenous fisheries knowledge, Indigenous fisheries science and governance practices, and the structural inequities that keep Indigenous peoples in Alaska from their deep traditional cultural practices, livelihoods, and relations. All of this deeply relational work lead to the birth of Tamamta (a Yup'ik and Sugpiaq word meaning 'all of us'), an organization focused on connecting Indigenous and Western sciences and supporting graduate students deeply connected with Indigenous communities in Alaska on research around fisheries.Interested in the Accountable Allies group?

On today's episode, Jessica talks with Tuula Sharma Vassvik (Sámi activist, land protector, musician, podcast host, and freelance contractor in Heritage and Indigenous Methodologies) about their journey through archaeology to Indigenous methodologies and land protection in Sápmi. Tuula's work focuses on solidarity across cultures and class, as well as community building and future building within Indigenous ways of life. We talk about their time at Standing Rock and how that shaped not only their Masters thesis, but their life trajectory. We also discuss their involvement in protests against wind turbines on reindeer herding areas, the destructive impact of farmed salmon on the coast and coastal Sámi people, as well as topics they have explored with their podcast guests, including Indigenizing queerness.

On today's episode, Jessica talks with Maura Sullivan (PhD student in Linguistics at Tulane University; Irish-American, Chumash and Mexican heritage, and an enrolled member of the Coastal Band of the Chumash Nation). Maura gives Jessica a crash course in many different language topics such as the difference between language work and linguistics, what is a minoritized language, and how you can revive a language in ways other than with fluent speakers (such as the Breath of Life program). She emphasizes the need for structural changes to support language work, but also some ways that we can all be better relatives and give back on an individual level. Maura also described varying creative methods to support language work, including how she incorporates her art, provides intra-community language materials, as well as making the Šmuwič language more visible where appropriate.Transcripts For rough transcripts of this episode go to https://www.archpodnet.com/heritagevoices/87Links Heritage Voices on the APN Darrell R.

On today's episode, Jessica goes more in depth with Joseph Gazing Wolf (Executive Director, Heritage Lands Collective [formerly Living Heritage Research Council]; Lakota, Nubian, and Amazigh) from Episode 84 on the Boulder Ethnographic-Education Project. On this episode, Joseph talks about how his childhood in Egypt and on the Standing Rock reservation inspired his interest in land, heritage, traditional ways of life, and working with elders. He talks more about his work with his buffalo relatives and how that led him to academia. He discusses how the settler-colonial context of academia is harmful to Indigenous scholars and how people in academic settings can engage with Indigenous communities in a relationally respectful manner. Finally, we conclude by talking about the work Heritage Lands Collective is doing and where Joseph would like to take it in the future, including Indigenous youth internships and youth-elder camps.Transcripts For rough transcripts of this episode go to https://www.archpodnet.com/heritagevoices/86Links Heritage Voices on the APN Heritage Lands Collective website Traditional Ecological Knowledge Section of the Ecological Society of America Resources Page More links available at: https://www.archpodnet.com/heritagevoices/86Contact Jessica Jessica@livingheritageanthropology.org @livingheritageA @LivingHeritageResearchCouncilArchPodNet APN Website: https://www.archpodnet.com APN on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/archpodnet APN on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/archpodnet APN on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/archpodnet Tee Public StoreAffiliates Motion

We also dive into the work of the Society of Black Archaeologists and Diving With a Purpose to tell a larger story of Black history in the field of Anthropology and to the general public, as well as to provide opportunities for the next generation of Black scholars and maritime archaeologists.
