We speak with Josefina Li, Assistant Director of the International Program Center at Bemidji State University and doctoral candidate at University of Missouri, Kansas City. Josefina's dissertation research brings feminist and ecological economic traditions into conversation with Modern Monetary Theory. We first encountered Li's work at the inaugural “Money on the Left” conference, which was held at University of South Florida in Spring 2018. At that conference, Li delivered a paper that explored the prospects of developing community currencies and implementing job guarantee programs in tribal nations. We were thrilled to finally speak with Josefina on the podcast and to learn more about her ongoing project of envisioning a jobs guarantee program for an ecofeminist future.

Show Notes: https://wetflyswing.com/637 Presented By: Skwala, Togiak River Lodge, Togens Fly Shop, Visit Helena, MT Sponsors: https://wetflyswing.com/sponsors Kamden Glade, fisheries specialist from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, joins us to discuss his groundbreaking research on the Minnesota musky diet. In some regions, these formidable fish have earned a dubious reputation for preying on prized sport fish like walleye and bass. However, Kamden's research provides a different perspective, revealing that musky in Minnesota seldom consume these highly valued species. Throughout the episode, Kamden shares intriguing insights from his comprehensive study, including the innovative techniques used to examine the stomach contents of these apex predators without causing them harm. Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of what musky feed on, the average sizes of their prey, and how this knowledge can enhance their chances of a successful catch during the fishing season. Episode Chapters with Kamden Glade on Minnesota Musky Research 3:45 - Kamden shares his lifelong passion for fishing, which started at a young age with his family, and later evolved into a professional career in fisheries biology. He explains that his interest in the ecology and biology of fish was sparked during his undergraduate studies, where a professor with a background in fisheries biology inspired him to pursue this path. 5:03 - His work in fisheries biology became more specialized during his graduate studies at Bemidji State University, where he led a research project analyzing the diets of muskies, walleye, northern pike, and largemouth bass in various lakes across Minnesota. This project aimed to address the negative perception of muskies, which are often thought to indiscriminately eat other fish species. 8:50 - Kamden discusses the diet of muskies, focusing on why walleye are not a significant part of their diet. Kamden explains that research, including studies in Minnesota and Wisconsin, shows that muskies primarily consume yellow perch and suckers. Other notable components of their diet include Northern pike, insects, aquatic invertebrates, and bullheads, depending on the region. Despite the presence of healthy walleye populations in the lakes studied, walleye were found in only four out of 650 muskie stomachs analyzed. This scarcity is not due to habitat differences, as both species often occupy the same areas in the lakes. Instead, it appears that walleye have effective defenses against predation. They have large tails for quick escapes, a heightened awareness of their surroundings, and sharp dorsal spines that deter muskies. 12:11 - We delve into the status, native range, and life history of muskies. Kamden explains that muskies are originally native to the Mississippi River and Ohio River basin, the Great Lakes drainage, and parts of Eastern and Central Canada. Despite remaining naturally reproducing in many systems, habitat changes caused by human activities like building dams and docks, and removing aquatic vegetation have led to a decline in natural reproduction. 14:27 - On the musky life history, he details that muskies typically spawn in spring when water temperatures range from the high 40s to low 60s, with peak spawning activity around the mid-50s. Unlike some fish, muskies do not build nests or defend their eggs. Instead, they spawn in shallow vegetation, and the eggs are left to fend for themselves. 16:25 - We talk about the conservation efforts surrounding musky fishing, particularly in Minnesota. Kamden explains that in Minnesota, muskies are generally not eaten, partly due to a statewide minimum size limit of 54 inches, which promotes their status as a trophy fish. This size limit means that by the time muskies reach 54 inches, they are usually quite old and less critical to the population, allowing for occasional harvesting without significant impact. 19:23 - I ask how their project has impacted public perception and regulations on musky fishing. Kamden explains that the project aimed to provide robust data on musky diets and their impact on other fish populations in Minnesota lakes. This data would help address any future disagreements or questions regarding musky management strategies. 22:09 - He describes how they got samples from the muskies' stomachs. What they did was catch them through electro-fishing. They had a generator that created an electrical field in the water. That temporarily stunned the fish enabling them to net and bring them on board. They put them in a live well to let them recover. They worked on these fish and then released them back into the lake. To get the food out from the fish, they used a regular bilge pump, hooked that up to a garden hose nozzle with a little piece of tubing and copper pipe on the end, and then they were able to put that pipe into the fish's mouth through their throat and into their stomach and then fill their stomach with water. That created pressure in their stomach and forced anything they'd eaten recently back out through their throat. They caught whatever was in their stomach and brought it back to the lab, identified it, and measured it. 28:16 - I ask about the long-term success of musky populations, particularly in light of climate change and other environmental factors. Kamden explains that in his region, climate change is not currently a major threat to musky populations because there are musky populations further south that suggest resilience to changes in water temperature. However, he acknowledges that climate change could affect the food sources for these fish, specifically citing the cold-water species Cisco, which are vulnerable to temperature changes. 31:03 - He says that in Minnesota, muskies are primarily found in larger lake ecosystems where natural reproduction is more prevalent. He speculates that the sheer size of these lakes might help protect the habitat better than smaller, more developed lakes. 36:34 - Kamden explains that the Cisco is a cold-water pelagic bait fish related to lake whitefish which inhabits deeper waters and has specific temperature and oxygen needs, making it a sensitive species. Due to its habitat, the Cisco has a unique isotopic signature compared to other prey fish. 37:37 - On the appropriate size of lures or flies for musky fishing, Kamden explains that their analysis shows a wide variation in prey size, but on average, predators tend to eat prey that is about 25 to 30% of their length. He mentions that while some large muskies have been observed eating very small aquatic insects and small yellow perch, others have consumed prey up to 60% of their length. 38:36 - We discuss fishing tips, particularly focusing on muskies and their feeding habits. Kamden challenges a common belief among anglers that smaller baits are necessary in the spring due to colder temperatures and fish not eating large meals. He notes that, contrary to this belief, many large fish are caught early in spring between the ice-out and the spawning period. 44:11 - Kamden mentions having recent interactions with Muskies Inc. Specifically, they helped purchase gear to trap minnows, which are essential for feeding the muskies during the summer before they are stocked in the fall. 46:28 - Kamden shares that he still enjoys fishing whenever he has time, particularly highlighting his enthusiasm for musky fishing. He notes that while working with fish professionally can sometimes diminish the desire to fish recreationally, especially with challenging species like muskies, he has rekindled his interest in musky fishing since completing graduate school.

As the nation's mental health crisis worsens, Native American youth are those at highest risk. Native Americans and Alaska Natives have the highest suicide rate of any other group. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention list suicide as the second leading cause of death for Native people between the ages of 10 and 34. National experts warn mental health has reached emergency crisis levels. The good news is there are increasing numbers of tools and methods to fight the problem. Tuesday on Native America Calling, as part of National Suicide Prevention Week, Shawn Spruce looks at the factors contributing to the problem and what is available to turn it around with Cheyenne Kippenberger (Seminole), communications coordinator for the Center for Native American Youth at the Aspen Institute; Dr. Mark Standing Eagle Baez (Mohawk, Pawnee, Coahuiltecan and Mexican descent), assistant professor of Counseling and Clinical Psychology at Bemidji State University; and behavioral health consultant Ray Daw (Diné).

On June 27, 1868, Hole in the Day (Bagonegiizhig) the Younger left Crow Wing, Minnesota, for Washington, DC, to fight the planned removal of the Mississippi Ojibwe to a reservation at White Earth. Several miles from his home, the self-styled leader of all the Ojibwe was stopped by at least twelve Ojibwe men and fatally shot.Hole in the Day's death was national news, and rumors of its cause were many: personal jealousy, retribution for his claiming to be head chief of the Ojibwe, retaliation for the attacks he fomented in 1862, or retribution for his attempts to keep mixed-blood Ojibwe off the White Earth Reservation. Still later, investigators found evidence of a more disturbing plot involving some of his closest colleagues: the business elite at Crow Wing.My guest, Anton Treuer, is Professor of Ojibwe at Bemidji State University and author of "The Assassination of Hole in the Day". He has spent years researching the story and believes he has solved the now one hundred and fifty four year old murder case.

The mass shootings in Buffalo, NY and Uvalde, TX are a shock to our collective sense of security. In addition to those two high-profile incidents, the Gun Violence Archive lists at least 14 shootings with four or more victims in the U.S. just over the Memorial Day weekend. Solutions for such violence seem beyond the reach of law enforcement officials and elected leaders. Today on Native America Calling, Shawn Spruce asks Native experts about ways to approach the prevention and healing of violence with Dr. Mark Standing Eagle Baez (Mohawk, Pawnee, Coahuiltecan, and Mexican), assistant professor of Counseling and Clinical Psychology at Bemidji State University; Leslie Logan (Seneca), founding member of the Mothers of the Seneca Nation and contributing writer for Indian Country Today; and Lynette Stant (Diné), 3rd grade teacher at Salt River Elementary School and 2020 Arizona Teacher of the Year.

Two decades ago, the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe in east-central Minnesota had 145 fluent speakers of the Ojibwe language. By 2019, that number had dwindled to just 25. Then, COVID-19 took a deadly toll. Today, there are only about 20. “That's incredibly devastating,” said Baabiitaw Boyd, who is senior advisor to an effort by the Mille Lacs Band to revitalize the language of the Ojibwe, or Anishinaabe. The reality that those skills and knowledge were in danger of being lost has brought a new sense of urgency to the band's ongoing efforts to preserve the Ojibwe language, and pass it on to future generations. While serving as an apprentice to fluent native speakers, Boyd said she learned that many elders were worried that younger generations growing up speaking English were missing out on important aspects of their culture and identity. Red Circle Agency Baabiitaw Boyd "A lot of our understanding of the natural world and how we interact with one another is embedded in the language and how we talk about something,” Boyd said. For example, while some languages assign a gender to different nouns, Ojibwe differentiates between what is alive, and what is not. Trees are animate. So are feathers, drums and snow. "A deeper respect is grown when you have a good grasp of the language because you're starting to see things and feel and understand things on a deeper level of their existence,” Boyd said. Anishinaabe Bizindamoo Makak On a new podcast, Ojibwe elders tell their stories 'Our hearts are heavy' COVID-19 deaths of tribal elders leave a void With that in mind, the Mille Lacs Band launched an effort to bolster the teaching of Ojibwe and provide more resources for learning the language. That included working with the Minnesota Historical Society Press to publish several monolingual books exclusively in the Ojibwe language. They capture stories told by elders and illustrated by local artists. Anton Treuer, an Ojibwe professor at Bemidji State University who's been working for decades to preserve the Ojibwe language, served as editor for the book project. "The Ojibwe language embodies the unique worldview of Ojibwe people,” Treuer said. "It's one of the things that defines us and distinguishes us from the rest of the world." With most fluent speakers in their 70s or older, Treuer said, the transfer of the Ojibwe language from generation to generation has been interrupted, and the window of opportunity for the Mille Lacs Band's fluent speakers to share their knowledge is closing. Bdote Learning Center A Minneapolis school is immersing students in both Dakota and Ojibwe Tom Robertson | MPR News file Anton Treuer is Bemidji State University' Ojibwe language professor. "So I said, ‘Why don't you set them up to teach people our language for hundreds of years to come?'” Treuer said. The Mille Lacs Band partnered with the language software company Rosetta Stone to develop a series of Ojibwe courses accessible by computer or smartphone. The interactive lessons include videos, illustrations and speech recognition technology that compares a student's pronunciation to native speakers. The program can be used by teachers in a school classroom, or by adults who want to learn on their own, no matter what their level of experience is. "We really want to provide access to anyone, anywhere, who wants to learn the language,” said Alexandra Loginov, Ojibwe curriculum development lead for Rosetta Stone. Loginov said the program was a collaborative effort with the Mille Lacs Band. Rosetta Stone staffers traveled to Minnesota, and willing band members helped make the lessons and record videos in their local dialect. "A lot of people are very excited to have this opportunity to put their knowledge out there and get it into the hands of so many people down the line, who will have it for years to come,” she said. 'Ojibwe Netflix' Tech developer launches video streaming service for Ojibwe speakers The Mille Lacs project marks the first time that Rosetta Stone has partnered with a Minnesota community to help preserve an endangered language, Loginov said. But it's worked with about 10 communities in other states. "We're kind of in a race against time to record their knowledge and capture what they know about culture as well as language, and make that available to a lot of people in different ways,” she said. Treuer said he understands why there might have been some initial skepticism of the project, given the long history of outsiders taking advantage of Native people. "Some people would naturally be distrustful,” he said. “Like, how come a corporation is going to be doing something with our language, and then they're going to be holding it hostage and selling it to the world?” Evan Frost | MPR News 2019 A student at Bdote Learning Center writes in Ojibwe in her name journal at the beginning of the day's Ojibwe immersion classes in Minneapolis in April 2019. But Treuer said the Mille Lacs Band will own the copyright and licensing rights. The program will be free to all band members and their descendants. Non-band members will have access to the courses for a $100 fee, with proceeds going to the band. Treuer stressed that the technology doesn't take the place of Ojibwe speakers sharing their knowledge from person to person. "It is not a silver bullet that will save the language,” he said. “It is not a replacement for a fluent speaker. It's just another tool in the toolbox." The first Rosetta Stone course launched this month for band members. In March, the program will be available for a fee to anyone interested in learning Ojibwe. Learning the Ojibwe language isn't just a novelty or an extracurricular activity, Boyd said. Rather, it helps provide a sense of identity and self awareness that will help people succeed in the workforce and in life, she said. "Because when somebody speaks Ojibwe, they will never question who they are,” Boyd said. “They will never have to question whether they're Anishinaabe or not. This is their language. This is how they see the world. This is how they understand themselves.”
