In this episode, we hear Laura share her journey, support, and advocacy for the Indigenous Communities of Colombia. How the brand products are made and the meaning of some. ➖➖➖➖➖ Buenas! My name is Laura, but you can call me Laurita. I am a proud Colombiana, born in Medellin, Antioquia. I have always been prideful of my beautiful country and the people that make it so special. I am on the tricky journey of finding out who I am, who my ancestors are, and what my purpose on this green earth is. I have a long journey ahead of me, but in the meantime, I wanted to support & advocate for the Indigenous communities of Colombia. About a year ago I started brainstorming different business ideas and then it dawned on me how cool and special it would be to support artisans straight from the motherland! I partnered up with 4 communities & families who are gifted artisans, pattern makers, and designers. I started Pülasü ancestral with the intention of helping preserve their traditions by working closely with artisans who make every piece on my page and not only showcasing their pieces, but also talking about the history, meaning, and purpose of their handcrafts. I'm super serious and motivated to make changes happen by creating lasting social & financial change in these communities by ensuring they're getting paid a fair price for their work that helps them get closer to financial freedom.

Episode #10 with Xico Garza https://www.instagram.com/xaviergarza93/ Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1813261178913713 Bio: Xico Garza is a Two-Spirit grandfather of 3 multi-racial children and resides on a 12-acre Land adjacent to the Giant Sequoia National Monument after living in San Francisco for thirty years. Being adopted, he only knows of his indigenous roots from his adopted mother and medicine woman, Mechi Garza. Xico leads an Aztec Dance group called Calpulli Tepeyollotl Cuahitlan. Through this and other groups, he collaborates with WildPlaces, an ecological restoration organization founded by his partner Mehmet McMillan. Their 12-acre home is along the Tule River and hosts numerous culture and nature events including the annual Two-Spirit Ceremony for peoples of all nations. “I am also blessed to be the water pourer for our sacred Temazcalli where I had a spiritual vision to share the medicine with Two-Spirit peoples four years ago”, Xico shares. “The temazcal is the starting point of the Two-Spirit Ceremony and is a way for attendees to reconnect with others in nature ethics and to give back to Mother Earth through tree and flower planting'. Xico is a survivor of AIDS since 1989. He was diagnosed while living in San Francisco, CA where he was involved in the local community, including being a curator and founder of the first Latino/a LGBTQ art exhibition held at the Mission Cultural Center for Latino Arts in 1991, which is still celebrated in many sectors of the arts throughout San Francisco. In 1994, Xico was fortunate to have traveled to Chiapas with Yan Maria Castro (a lesbian and leader of the woman's march in Mexico City) to interview and sleepover with the Zapatistas who changed Xico's narrative and inspired him to vow to work with all indigenous groups. As well, in 2007, he traveled to the hill tribes of eastern Burma with Burma Humanitarian Mission to assist with primary and secondary medical health services to the Karen people there. Soon after Xico found Danza Mexica with Maestra Macuil Xotchill from Sacramento CA. Xico gives honor and gratitude to his mentors: Dr. Daisaku Ikeda, Danza Maestra Martha Solís, Macuil Xotchill, and Temazcal Maestra Sandra Cipaccihuatl.

Interview with Ashley “Nallungriiq” DeHart Instagram: @thicc.indigenous.baddie Bio: My name is Ashley “Nallungriiq” DeHart. I am 23 years old. I am enrolled in the Sunaq Tribe of Kodiak. I come from the Sugpiaq Nation. The core of my existence stems from the southernmost village on Kodiak Island called, “Akhiok.” I spent my summers between the village and my grandpa's fish camp in Olga Bay. I spent my winters in the city of Kodiak for school. At fish camp, we would spend our time preparing for the long winters. My favorable childhood memories are with my grandparents. They are the reason I am who and where I am today. My passion is culture and keeping traditions alive. I am always learning and trying to ask questions about our people. I am a full-time homemaker and I run my business on the side called, “Nunaq Medicine.” I sell my artwork via social media, 95% of my sales are commissioned orders. I am blessed to be able to look after my daughter at home and allow her to watch the things I am doing. I let her watch me bead, sew, tattoo, dance, sing, drum, make regalia, cook, clean, process/ preserve our native foods, traditional healing, & carving. I try to teach her our language (Sugtstun) with the little words and phrases I know. All vital and important to all of our people. I've dedicated the last 5 years of my life to reclaiming what was asleep in my family, I am still paddling against the wind. Right now, I am learning how to carve wood, walrus ivory, and whale baleen, with hopes to add these items into my inventory for sales. I encourage anyone that is trying to learn about their heritage, to just go for it! You will only gain from that moment forward. For something that is so little, it impacts your life so drastically, in a good way that you heal yourself, you heal the ones who came before you, and heal the ones you will look after. Culture saved my life.  ----- OITClothing Established in 2016 by Yendi and Johnny Nieto The O.I.T. mission is to build awareness and showcase Indigenous Culture with the utmost respect to communities.
