Last episode of Cities 1.5, we took you into the Arctic region through the perspectives of a world-renowned scientist and seasoned canoeist and river guide. This time, we're staying in that region - but we're speaking to an expert who hails from the circumpolar North about the connections between climate change and human rights. Because Indigenous communities have been calling attention to warming temperatures in the Arctic, and the resulting impacts on their ways of life, for decades already.

We acknowledge that what we call Alberta is the traditional and ancestral territory of many peoples, presently subject to Treaties 6, 7, and 8. Namely: the Blackfoot Confederacy – Kainai, Piikani, and Siksika – the Cree, Dene, Saulteaux, Nakota Sioux, Stoney Nakoda, and the Tsuu T'ina Nation and the Métis People of Alberta. This includes the Métis Settlements and the Six Regions of the Métis Nation of Alberta within the historical Northwest Metis Homeland. We acknowledge the many First Nations, Métis and Inuit who have lived in and cared for these lands for generations. We are grateful for the traditional Knowledge Keepers and Elders who are still with us today and those who have gone before us. We make this acknowledgement as an act of reconciliation and gratitude to those whose territory we reside on or are visiting.

By the 1970's and 80's, whether settler Canada understood it or not,  the reality was that generations of Indigenous people had attended and/or been scarred by the residential school system.  Traditional gender roles and ways of life had been flipped on their heads. As more indigenous folks moved into urban areas, they were bumping up against Canada's political and legal structures in new ways.  In this episode, we learn about pre-existing Indigeous political structures and the role of Indigenous leaders in patriating the Canadian constitution. We see the birth of important indigenous activism, known as Red Power,  and the ways that activism is evolving today. Find the Indigenous Canada Course:Indigenous Canada via Coursera.orgIndigenous Canada via the University of AlbertaDiscover Small Conversations on Social MediaInstagramFacebookTwitterFind Susannah Steers at www.movingspirit.ca and on social media @themovingspirit.Find Gillian McCormick at https://physiogillian.com/ and on social media @physiogillian.

Susannah and Gillian cover week 3 of the Indigenous Canada course. This module covers the history of the treaty process in Canada from the Peace and Friendship Treaties all the way through the Modern Treaties. It is shown that the two sovereign nations involved in the treaties viewed the process of negotiation, and the content of each treaty very differently, giving perspective on the current land use conflicts.

Season 5 of the Small Conversations for a Better World Podcast is coming up in January 2022! This season, we're doing something a little different. We're dedicating this entire season to conversations about decolonization.  And we want you to join us! Here's the plan: Hosts Gillian McCormick and Susannah Steers are currently completing the Indigenous Canada course, created by the University of Alberta's Faculty of Native Studies. Indigenous Canada is a twelve-week long MOOC (massive online open course), available free through coursera.org.  As we proceed through the course, we'll be talking about what we're learning, how it might be different from Canadian history & social studies we learned in school, and how what we're learning might relate to things we see in the current environment. We invite you to register for the course and participate with us! During each episode, we'll talk about what we've learned in two weeks of the course.  We'll embark on some wide ranging conversations from the perspective of two settler women who have a lot to learn. We want to know better, so we can do better.  Here's how to join us: Sign up now for the FREE Indigenous Canada course at www.coursera.org. Start working your way through the course, at your own speed. If you have thoughts and questions, send them our way at info@smallconversationspodcast.ca - or connect with us on social media.  Join us Friday, January 7th, 2022 for Season 5,  Episode 1, when we'll get started discussing the first two weeks of the Indigenous Canada course.

Rights of Passage: A Reconciliation Podcast is a three-part podcast that engages with wampum and contemporary treaties, territorial and land acknowledgments and most importantly, the actions that Canadians can take as we work together with First Peoples towards reconciliation. Haudenosaunee knowledge holder Kelly ‘Frantastic' Davis and Dr. Stephen Svenson of Wilfrid Laurier University are your hosts.   About the Rabbit Dance Song: Haudenosaunee social songs and dances are for the enjoyment of the people. They are referred to as earth songs and we are taught that they are also to let Creator know that we are grateful and appreciate all of creation, our natural environment. We chose the rabbit dance for this reconciliation podcast because this is typically the first dance that a newly united couple dances following their sacred ceremony.  Throughout the song and dance the couple join hands standing side by side with their bodies and feet facing forward. After the singer sings the introduction of the song, the couple begins to swing their hands and move their feet forward. As their hands are swinging out in front of their bodies and looping around to do a full 360 degree turn and appear to be looping around again, their arms retreat when they reach a quarter of the way into the next circle. While their arms are swinging, their feet move forward two steps, one foot in front of the other. When their arms retreat, so does the leading foot.  These movements repeat over and over, other couples join single file behind the leading couple as they circle around the singers seated in the middle of the dance area. During each song there is a change in the drumbeat and that signals each couple to go around in their own small circle before continuing to dance around the singers. As the couples go around in their own little circle, they maintain the same movements and continue to stay to the beat of the handheld water drum.  Reconciliation work requires the union of people being in sync with each other despite the challenges that will be presented along the way. During Rights of Passage: A Reconciliation Podcast you will hear discussions between our hosts who come from diverse realities speaking about how they work together as colleagues and friends to share reconciliation practices and ideas for a brighter future for all of our future generations.   Important Links Organizations: www.sixnations.ca/ http://mncfn.ca/  www.nctr.ca/ - National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation: www.facebook.com/nctr.ca www.woodlandculturalcentre.ca/ - Woodland Cultural Centre www.crowshieldlodge.com/ - Crow Shield Lodge   Educational Resources:  www.linkedin.com/in/kelly-davis-heyote-dok-37171710/?originalSubdomain=ca  www.lspirg.org/knowtheland - Know The Land Territories Campaign www.goodminds.com  www.reconciliationcanada.ca/ - Reconciliation Canada www.coursera.org/learn/indigenous-canada - Indigenous Canada (free online course) www.lynngehl.com/uploads/5/0/0/4/5004954/ally_bill_of_responsibilities_poster.pdf - Ally Bill of Responsibilities

During Rights of Passage: A Reconciliation Podcast you will hear discussions between our hosts who come from diverse realities speaking about how they work together as colleagues and friends to share reconciliation practices and ideas for a brighter future for all of our future generations.   Important Links Organizations: www.sixnations.ca/ http://mncfn.ca/  www.nctr.ca/ - National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation: www.facebook.com/nctr.ca www.woodlandculturalcentre.ca/ - Woodland Cultural Centre www.crowshieldlodge.com/ - Crow Shield Lodge   Educational Resources:  www.linkedin.com/in/kelly-davis-heyote-dok-37171710/?originalSubdomain=ca  www.lspirg.org/knowtheland - Know The Land Territories Campaign www.goodminds.com  www.reconciliationcanada.ca/ - Reconciliation Canada www.coursera.org/learn/indigenous-canada - Indigenous Canada (free online course) www.lynngehl.com/uploads/5/0/0/4/5004954/ally_bill_of_responsibilities_poster.pdf - Ally Bill of Responsibilities

Sophia reads to her plants and admits being afraid of anthologies, Élaina waxes poetic about “reading practices”, and we all discuss the impact of reading Love After the End (edited by Joshua Whitehead) and the radical statement that is writing utopias when you live in a dystopic world.

**Content warning** This is a conversation about Canada's oppression and brutal treatment of Indigenous peoples and the recent discovery of 215 children's bodies in Kamloops, BC. Since taping this episode, there have been more discoveries in Brandon, MB and the list is growing. This is a time of deep grief for First Nations and a national tragedy.

We interview friend of the show Dr. Daniel Wayne Lee, longtime organizer, people's politician, and activist and now vice mayor of Culver City, CA, on the merits and challenges to the inside/outside approach to systemic change. We talk about direct action and civil disobedience -- what distinguishes them from one another and why both are necessary. And of course, we learn what radicalized Daniel to choose this life of fighting tirelessly for racial, economic and environmental justice. What's agitating us? We vent about the political + corporate corruption happening in the ranks of the European Union/World Trade Organization that will likely prevent the release of COVID-19 related patents, which would allow all nations to develop their own vaccines and therapies. We also go deep on the new Texas abortion laws, and what makes them even more barbaric than previous “heartbeat bills” we've seen -- and we discuss some of our own personal experiences navigating the reproductive healthcare system.

"The Future is Relational" feat. Kitsuné Rêver Kitsuné Rêver is a resident of Alberta, Canada, where she is a nurse and a gardener among other things. This was her third appearance on the podcast and it was simply delightful to welcome her back to the show. In our wide-ranging conversation, we covered a lot of topics including a political scandal in Alberta where local office holders traveled in spite of COVID lockdown; pandemic fatigue; the difference between responding and reacting; the effects of social media on brain function & communication; the end of "normal"; consumption & consumerism; the possibility of famine; the population debate; Kitsuné's family heritage in Canada as an example of how lifestyles have changed; the human "longing for belonging"; how advertising manipulates our beliefs and choices; the poison of mainstream news media; the poor quality of information on the internet; and the importance of following indigenous leadership. We recorded this six days after the Capitol Hill riot on Jan. 6th, and we refer to it several times before talking about it near the end.
