In the most compelling way, Whiskey Tender, the memoir by Deborah Jackson Taffa (Kwatsaán and Laguna Pueblo), is both an intimate personal story and Native American history lesson. It reveals her own epiphany over what she and her ancestors are pressured to sacrifice in striving for the American Dream. Her account is both poignant and humorous. Best-selling author Tommy Orange calls Taffa's story a “drink you didn't know you were thirsty for.”

Michelle Soto is a devoted mother and beloved teacher.  Her murder in the Summer of 1995 leaves the community in shock.  A local reporter, Renee Ferguson, is tapped to look into her case and soon discovers that there may be a common link in Michelle's case and the cases of other people, like Marshall Jr.  Looking into this case starts to unravel something bigger than Renee could imagine.  In Part 1, law enforcement is confronted with Renee's findings.  But will they ignore what's right in front of them or do something about it?For a list of sources from today's episode and pictures, please visit www.itsthemysteryforme.com/episodes/michellesotoOur Social Media: www.itsthemysteryforme.com/links

On this week's show I am re-broadcasting a panel of highly intelligent individuals in which we discuss the future of retail and the ever-changing landscape that encompasses retail.

Most would agree that we live in a sex-saturated culture. So why do we find it so hard to talk about sex? Deborah Jackson, Clinical Training and Developmental Specialist for JRI, trains clinicians and staff to handle sexualized behavior that young clients are exhibiting (or thinking about exhibiting). “We come with our own personal beliefs. We come with our own morals. We come with our own personal histories,” she says. Jackson was a featured guest on Justice in Action, a podcast series hosted by JRI, (Justice Resource Institute) the leading social service agency in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut. She says that how effective clinicians or staff are often depends on their own attitudes about sex and about “sexualized behaviors that are normative for every stage of development.”  For example, 4-year-olds who feel overwhelmed or overtired sometimes will stroke their genitals to calm themselves. “For a little kid it doesn’t feel any different than stroking their arm or their hair (or carrying around) a blanket or teddy bear,” she says. “(But) we don’t want them doing it in the mall when they’re tired and mommy’s made them shop too much.”  For older children in their early to mid-teens, sending nude or partially nude photos is normative behavior — that is, something that a “great number of people are doing.” Jackson recommends that adults try not to overreact to such behavior, but seek to make it comfortable for children to talk about, if only to listen and then remind them, “These are not our values. There are some safety risks” that come from sending out nude photos that could end up on the internet or in the hands of adults looking to exploit children for sex.  “The conversation needs to be more than ‘Just stop it,’” she says. Adults’ discomfort means most children never get to have “frank, honest conversations with their parents about sex.”  And sex education in most public schools is inadequate, Jackson says, noting that only 24 states require that the schools teach even the basics.  So for many children, what they learn about sex comes from their friends — or the internet. The average age of a child’s first exposure to explicit online photos or videos is 11, Jackson says. Jackson will conduct training about handling sexualized behavior on April 10, and we invite you to visit the JRI website at www.jri.org/events to learn more.

Deborah Jackson, Founder and CEO of Plum Alley investments, had a father who worked for IBM (often jokingly called I’ve Been Moved). And so, as a child, she moved every few years to another place in the US. “Moving made me resourceful and adaptable,” she says. “I realize in my 60s, it is a good skill set for navigating change.” After business school, Jackson “stumbled” into investment banking at Goldman Sachs in municipal finance. After 20 years, she retired, found her way onto five non-profit boards and even explored her bucket list. “I flunked retirement,” she laughs.  Jackson had been mentoring entrepreneurs and investing when she decided to create a business out of it. “I wanted to change the experience of how investing is done,” she tells Lesley Jane Seymour, founder of CoveyClub. “How do we get women excited about investing? How do we create joy beyond the financial transaction?” Plum Alley, a private membership that gives investors “access to influence innovation and shape the future by investing in private companies” does just that — and has already invested in 19 companies in 24 months.  “Wise women over 60 have so much to give back,” Jackson says. “Age and wisdom are really significant together.” 

In podcast episode 113, Dr. Deborah Jackson-Dennison (Navajo) talks with me about some of the challenges and successes of leading Native American schools.
