In Season 3, Episode 3: Nick Tilsen, NDN Collective CEO and Founder, joins NDN Collective President Wizipan Little Elk Garriott and Vice President Gaby Strong to talk about the current political moment, changes to the movement building landscape and the future of our organization. NDN Collective was founded seven years ago and has created significant impact for Indigenous People across Turtle Island through grants, grassroots organizing, loans, narrative change, and political education. Our organization was created for moments like the one we are in now, where human and civil rights are under attack and authoritarianism is on the rise. Democratic backsliding is real. The political and financial landscape has shifted. This has caused our organization to pivot, evolve, and rise up to ensure we can continue building Indigenous power for years to come.

Amanda Erickson grew up in the Boston suburbs, always knowing there was something a little different about her - the dark pigmentation in her skin. Years later, she would reconnect with her father, who lived on the San Carlos Apache reservation in Arizona. This would begin a journey that would lead her to connect with her Indigenous heritage and transform her long career in film. After 16 years working for Hulu, Discovery, The Travel Channel, National Geographic, and others, she has begun making films about Indigenous people for mainstream audiences.Contact me at silverliningshandbookpod@gmail.comCheck out the Silver Linings Handbook website at:https://silverliningshandbook.com/Check out our Patreon to support the show at:https://www.patreon.com/thesilverliningshandbookJoin our Facebook Group at:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1361159947820623Visit the Silver Linings Handbook store to support the podcast at:https://www.bonfire.com/store/the-silver-linings-handbook-podcast-storeVisit The True Crime Times Substack at:https://truecrimemessenger.substack.comThe Silver Linings Handbook podcast is a part of the ART19 network.

On this month's Macaranga Wrap-Up, we turn to the International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples. In Selangor, Jaringan Orang Asal SeMalaysia (JOAS) marked the occasion with a two-day celebration themed “Defend the Earth, Restore the Land, Regreen the Future – Through Indigenous Wisdom.” We speak to Macaranga co-founder Wong Siew Lyn to unpack what that means for Indigenous rights and the environment, and for a run-down of the festivities.Image Credit: Jaringan Orang Asal SeMalaysiaSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
You might have heard of the new term: “woke right.” It's the idea that the illiberalism that has swallowed the progressive left—what we often refer to as “wokeness”—has come for the right. Here's how we think about the dynamic: Over the past two decades the woke left said: “Everything is taboo”—our Founding Fathers, the idea that men and women are different, the idea that wearing hoop earrings is verboten because it's cultural appropriation, and on and on. Naturally, people got fed up. Including people like Bari. Then some on the right exploited that anger, and said: “Nothing is taboo”—not words like “gay” or “retarded,” but also not “Holocaust revisionism” or “white nationalism.” Some of this dynamic is playing out in the headlines: The woke left changed Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples' Day. Then the White House changed the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America—the Trump administration even temporarily banned the Associated Press from the White House press room after it continued to publish “the Gulf of Mexico.” When the woke left tried to change the character of our nation's founding and take down statues of Winston Churchill and George Washington, the right took down a description of Jackie Robinson's military service that was on the Department of Defense website because it was too DEI-coded. On that note, the White House also recently said they would conduct a review of Smithsonian exhibitions to make sure they align with American ideals. And when the woke left said trans, disabled, people of color are the most oppressed class in America, the woke right says white, Christian men are actually at the bottom of the totem pole—creating a new form of identity politics, in right-wing language. It's a fascinating and alarming dynamic. The same phenomenon on each side of the political spectrum. We would argue wokeness on the left went totally mainstream. Rod Dreher is one of the rare voices calling attention to the illiberalism on the right—and the danger it poses. He says the right has a unique opportunity to stop this woke impulse before it metastasizes. Rod is a contributing editor at The American Conservative. He's the author of many books including his new bestseller, Live Not by Lies: A Manual for Christian Dissidents. And he most recently wrote in our pages “The Radical Right Is Coming for Your Sons.” Bari recently sat down with him to discuss why the woke right tolerates antisemitism and white nationalism, why this movement is appealing to men specifically, if it is fair to equate the woke right with the woke left, why he himself is not even comfortable with the term woke right—we'll get into that in the conversation—and what happens if this impulse on the right goes mainstream.

Until now, the standard narrative of American religious history has begun with English settlers in Jamestown or Plymouth and remained predominantly Protestant and Atlantic. Driven by his strong sense of the historical and moral shortcomings of the usual story, Thomas A. Tweed offers a very different narrative in this ambitious new history. He begins the story much earlier—11,000 years ago—at a rock shelter in present-day Texas and follows Indigenous Peoples, African Americans, transnational migrants, and people of many faiths as they transform the landscape and confront the big lifeway transitions, from foraging to farming and from factories to fiber optics. Setting aside the familiar narrative themes, Dr. Tweed highlights sustainability, showing how religion both promoted and inhibited individual, communal, and environmental flourishing during three sustainability crises: the medieval Cornfield Crisis, which destabilized Indigenous ceremonial centers; the Colonial Crisis, which began with the displacement of Indigenous Peoples and the enslavement of Africans; and the Industrial Crisis, which brought social inequity and environmental degradation. The unresolved Colonial and Industrial Crises continue to haunt the nation, Dr. Tweed suggests, but he recovers historical sources of hope as he retells the rich story of America's religious past. Our guest is: Dr. Thomas A. Tweed, who is professor emeritus of American Studies and history at the University of Notre Dame. A past president of the American Academy of Religion, he is the editor of Retelling U.S. Religious History and the author numerous books including Religion: A Very Short Introduction, and Religion in the Lands That Became America. Our host is: Dr. Christina Gessler, who holds a PhD in American history. She works as a grad student and dissertation coach, and is a developmental editor for scholars in the humanities and social sciences. She is the producer of the Academic Life podcast and the author of the Academic Life newsletter, found at christinagessler.substack.com Playlist for listeners: The Lost Journals of Sacajewea Disabled Ecologies: Lessons From A Wounded Desert Gay on God's Campus How to Human The Good-Enough Life Mindfulness A Conversation About Yiddish Studies Welcome to Academic Life, the podcast for your academic journey—and beyond!

The war in Ukraine didn't start in 2022—it started in Crimea in 2014. In this episode, we sit down with University of Michigan professor and anthropologist Dr. Greta Uehling to explore the story of the Crimean Tatars, Ukraine's Indigenous people and one of the first communities to resist Russian occupation in 2014. Drawing on years of fieldwork and personal testimony, Greta shares how Crimean Tatars have faced erasure, exile, and repression—yet continue to preserve identity, community, and resistance under impossible conditions.We dive into the historical roots of the Crimean Tatar struggle, their role in shaping Ukraine's civic identity, and why Crimea remains central to understanding the war today. From silent protests to grassroots organizing, this conversation spotlights the people and stories often left out of the headlines—but at the heart of Ukraine's fight for sovereignty.Greta's new book, Decolonizing Ukraine: How the Indigenous People of Crimea Remade Themselves after Russian Occupation, is available now.
Agriculture played an important role in colonialism and the dispossession of Indigenous peoples. Today it could help build prosperity and reconciliation. We hear from Chief Cadmus Delorme on the history of agriculture and colonialism as it is expressed on Cowessess First Nation, Treaty 4 in Saskatchewan.In this episode, Chief Delorme traces the history of his First Nation from before European contact, through signing of Treaty 4, the failure to implement Treaty obligations, and the roadblocks to real First Nations engagement in agriculture from the start. Support for European-style agriculture was promised in the numbered treaties of western Canada like Treaty 4, only to be quickly subverted.Chief Delorme talks about many of the issues regarding these treaties and the Indian Act. The Indian Agents' power to control First Nations people, the pass system requiring the Indian Agents' approval of sales of grain and cattle, and arbitrary reductions in the size of the Cowessess reserve land area.This is a brutal irony as Indigenous people and agriculture have a long history in Canada and on Turtle Island going back thousands of years. The agricultural innovations from Indigenous peoples in the Americas transformed global agriculture after European contact.This presentation was part of virtual conference in September 2021 on Indigenous Agricultural Innovation held by FHQ Developments and is used with their permission.Chief Cadmus Delorme, Cree (Nehiyaw) and Saulteaux (Anishinabe), was Chief of the Cowessess First Nation. He came to national attention in 2021 when 751 unmarked graves were identified on Cowessess First Nation. He holds a Master of Public Administration and Bachelor of Business Administration from the First Nations University of Canada, and was also named in CBC Saskatchewan's Future 40, a list of leaders, builders and change-makers under the age of 40.This episode is part of a series on different aspects of Indigenous agriculture. In the next episodes, Cadmus Delorme explores the challenges and opportunities for First Nations' pursuing prosperity through business development in agriculture and agri-business.Thanks to Thomas Benjoe and Indigenous Agriculture Innovation for partnering to air this on Food Farm Talk.Cowessess First Nationhttps://www.cowessessfn.com/A Brief History of Indigenous Agriculturehttps://manitobamuseum.ca/a-brief-history-of-indigenous-agriculture/Canada's First Nations people were country's first farmershttps://www.producer.com/crops/canadas-first-nations-people-were-countrys-first-farmers/File Hills Qu'Appelle (FHQ) Developmentshttps://fhqdev.com/File Hills Qu'Appelle Tribal Councilhttps://fhqtc.com/Federation of Sovereign Indigenous Nationshttps://www.fsin.ca/Indigenous Peoples in Canadian agriculture - Agriculture and Agri-Food Canadahttps://agriculture.canada.ca/en/indigenous-peoples-canadian-agriculture
Today on American Indian Airwaves (AIA), our guest provides an extensive update on Mexico's recent Constitutional reforms between June and July 2025, the February 2025 threat of the Trump Administration listing certain Mexican cartels as foreign terrorist organizations and possibly US military intervention, and how the new Constitutional reforms actually expand state and cartel powers which has already produced a spike or escalation in violent deaths of Indigenous peoples. Our guest will also discuss Mexico's President, Claudia Sheinbaum, administration approval of the Palenque-San Cristóbal Highway (~95 miles) and its implications for Indigenous peoples and their traditional homelands, expanded U.S. militarization of ICE in Michigan targeting, rounding up, and deporting immigrants in an era of U.S. authoritarian fascism, and more.

Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened down 224-points this morning from yesterday's close, at 23,318 on turnover of $6.3-billion N-T. The market bucked a regional downward trend on Thursday and moved higher, as investors shrugged off a decline on Wall Street overnight caused by concerns that U-S Federal Reserve may not deliver interest rates cuts by September. Turnover also bounced back (恢復) from the decline seen during the previous session - as investor concerns over U-S tariff polices on Taiwan appeared to weaken. MOC launches new cultural program in tandem with Expo 2025 Osaka The Ministry of Culture says cultural program organized for Expo 2025 Osaka will premiere this weekend with a special exhibition featuring 50 selected picture books about various aspects of life in Taiwan. According to the ministry, the "We TAIWAN" cultural program is designed to partner with and make the most of the 2025 World Expo. The ministry says teams that left for Osaka last week have been setting up exhibitions (展覽) and rehearsing for the program - and the main "We TAIWAN" visual display has been set-up at the Grand Green Osaka venue. The first event of the program will be an exhibition of 50 picture books by Taiwanese writers and illustrators. The show will also feature elements from Taiwan's Indigenous Peoples, local folklore, daily life, as well as Taiwan's food culture, religions, arts and natural scenery (自然風光). The "We TAIWAN" program features 38 groups of artists from Taiwan and Japan who will put on a total of 129 performances from August 2 through 20. US special envoy meets Netanyahu as Gaza "famine" unfolds US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff has met Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem as global outrage intensifies over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Canada is the latest Western power to say it will recognise (正式認定) a Palestinian state. Kate fisher reports from Washington Macao ExDemocracy Lawmaker Arrested Under Security Law Macao police say they have arrested a man on suspicion of colluding with forces outside the Chinese casino hub to endanger national security. It was the first publicly known arrest under the city's national security law. Local media outlets report former pro-democracy lawmaker Au Kam San is the suspect. Police said Thursday the 68-year-old Macao resident with the surname Au allegedly colluded (串通;勾結;) with an anti-China group outside of the city and provided false and seditious materials for public display online or abroad. He also is accused of maintaining long-term contact with multiple anti-China entities outside of Macao and repeatedly providing unfounded information to them or their media outlets for dissemination. Peru PreIncan Tombs Discovered Utility workers in Peru's capital have discovered two pre-Incan tombs while expanding underground gas networks. One tomb was empty, but the other contained remains about 1,000 years old, along with clay and pumpkin shell vessels (容器, 器皿). Archaeologists say the vessels' (容器, 器皿) design links them to the pre-Incan Chancay culture. Lima, a city with over 400 archaeological sites, often reveals such finds during construction projects. The company responsible for the gas network has made over 2,200 discoveries in two decades. That was the I.C.R.T.

The environmental issues we face stretch beyond the climate crisis and raise issues regarding things that the Community of Christ holds dear. For instance, how we respond to environmental issues has a direct effect on the worth of persons... and often it's the indigenous peoples of the land in question. In this episode of Climate Brewing, Susan Oxley hosts Dr. Karin Unger, a research fellow at the University of Queensland, to discuss the impact of mine closures on indigenous communities. With over 50,000 abandoned mines, many affecting indigenous lands, Dr Unger emphasizes the need for better policies and regulations to address these issues and the importance of making space for indigenous people in the conversations regarding just transitions.Find other episodes in the Climate Brewing series.Download TranscriptThanks for listening to Project Zion Podcast!Follow us on Facebook and Instagram!Intro and Outro music used with permission: “For Everyone Born,” Community of Christ Sings #285.

Setting aside the familiar narrative themes, Dr. Tweed highlights sustainability, showing how religion both promoted and inhibited individual, communal, and environmental flourishing during three sustainability crises: the medieval Cornfield Crisis, which destabilized Indigenous ceremonial centers; the Colonial Crisis, which began with the displacement of Indigenous Peoples and the enslavement of Africans; and the Industrial Crisis, which brought social inequity and environmental degradation. The unresolved Colonial and Industrial Crises continue to haunt the nation, Dr. Tweed suggests, but he recovers historical sources of hope as he retells the rich story of America's religious past. Our guest is: Dr. Thomas A. Tweed, who is professor emeritus of American Studies and history at the University of Notre Dame. A past president of the American Academy of Religion, he is the editor of Retelling U.S. Religious History and the author numerous books including Religion: A Very Short Introduction, and Religion in the Lands That Became America. Our host is: Dr. Christina Gessler, who holds a PhD in American history. She works as a grad student and dissertation coach, and is a developmental editor for scholars in the humanities and social sciences.

On a spontaneous whim one rainy Saturday morning, Tom began to read a storybook to me through whatsapp voice notes. A storybook that he had not quite got round to reading before. You know the type - you skim the illustrations, grab it on impulse, then on returning home it sits patiently in the ‘waiting pile', sighing to itself at the wonder the book knows it contains within its interior. And oh my, what a storybook it was! I argued with it, questioned it, took offence to it and peered dubiously at it. I also marvelled at it, gasped with awe at it, surrendered with delight to it and ultimately fell into a spellbound swoon. How could I not want to share such a tale and such a teller with you! So, here for your listening pleasure is the story of Eemook as read by Tom… Eemook's story is from The Sea Lion written by master storyteller Ken Kesey and illustrated by Neal Waldman, published in 1991. It is described by the publishers as an original tale that takes its inspiration from the Indigenous Peoples of the Pacific Northwest. The Peoples include the Chinook, Salish, Coast Salish, Kwakwaka'wakw and the Tlingit. More information can be found at https://www.nativehistory.info/pacific-northwest-native-tribes-culture/ And as an extra bonus I wanted to share a stunning short film by Jules Guerin entitle A Shaman's Tale - https://julesguerin.tv/a-shamans-tale Tom lives in a small cottage in the Bay Area of California where he designs and maintains gnome friendly gardens that incorporate native plants, which are also friendly toward birds and bees. He is a part time astrologer who loves viewing the night sky from the desert. His recent interest in giving voice to story has emerged along with a rekindled interest in song. It has been helped along from having had the events of his life lovingly mirrored back to him as story, and the gentle encouragement of his uncensored voice. Find out more about his interactions with the plant people at tegardendesign.com With love Elizabeth of the Faerytale Apothecary

In this deeply interesting episode, I'm joined by Julie from Luminous Voices, a professional choir based in Canada that's been quietly reshaping its work by collaborating with First Nations composers and singers.What started as an outdoor music project during COVID has become an ongoing journey into shared musical storytelling — one that honours Indigenous languages like Cree, explores traditional singing techniques such as vocables, and centres connection, slowness, and careIn this episode, we talk about:• Singing in Cree and why language carries memory and healing• The meaning of vocables — non-word syllables full of cultural significance• What it means to begin with listening and relationship before performance• How music helps bridge generations, especially in schools• The story behind the song Ogawimaski — a love letter to Mother Earth• Julie's personal moment walking the land while singing — and feeling the past ripple through her• How non-Indigenous allies can respectfully begin their own learning journey• Why music might be the gentlest path toward reconciliation and cultural connectionJulie shares how this work has not only changed how they perform, but how they gather, listen, and walk alongside communities with deep roots on the land. We also talk about the personal impact — what it feels like to sing to Mother Earth, and how humility and love are at the heart of this ongoing journey.If you're curious about how music can support reconciliation, or if you've ever felt like a song can teach you more than a textbook — this conversation is a beautiful place to begin.Whether you're a musician, an introvert curious about culture, or someone wanting to explore a more heart-led path to connection, I hope this episode gives you something to hold and reflect on.Acknowledgement:This episode includes conversation around First Nations music and cultural collaboration.I respectfully acknowledge the Bunurong People of the Kulin Nation, the Traditional Custodians of the land where I live and create. I honour their deep connection to land, song, and story — and pay my respects to Elders past and present.I also acknowledge the Indigenous Peoples of Canada — including First Nations, Inuit, and Métis — whose music, language, and cultural knowledge are shared in this episode through the lived experience of my guest.=====================Connect with Julie HERE:=====================www.parentmentornow.com https://www.youtube.com/c/luminousvoicesInstagram: @parent.mentor.nowLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/julie-freedman-smith/=====================Here are ways to connect, support and work with me at Living on the B Side:=====================
There are many different studies whose subjects are indigenous people, for example research on culture, health, and so on. With the best of intentions in mind, we may assume that the results and data of the research will be used to the best purposes for those indigenous communities, but is that how it will always play out in the real world, and how would it be possible to guarantee that the data would be used according to what the community wants? - Banyak berbagai penelitian yang subjeknya adalah masyarakat adat, misalnya penelitian tentang kebudayaan, kesehatan, dan sebagainya. Bila berprasangka baik, kita akan menduga bahwa hasil dan data penelitian tersebut akan digunakan sebaik mungkin untuk kepentingan masyarakat adat, tapi apakah memang selalu begitu adanya dan bagaimana pula cara menjamin agar data tersebut bisa digunakan oleh masyarakat adat sesuai keinginan mereka?
In the face of rising anti-immigrant rhetoric, a new partnership between Lush Cosmetics and the Canadian Council for Refugees is taking a stand. Together, they've launched Neighbours—a campaign built on the belief that Canada should be a place of welcome, belonging and justice for all. At the center of this campaign is the limited-edition Resilient Bath Bomb. Seventy-five percent of the purchase price (minus the taxes) from the Resilient Bath Bomb go directly to organizations working on the front lines to support refugee and immigrant communities. Today on rabble radio, Gauri Sreenivasan (Canadian Council for Refugees) and Carleen Pickard (Lush Cosmetics, North America) sit down with rabble editor Nick Seebruch to talk about how the partnership came together, the shared values behind it, and how everyday acts of care can connect to broader movements for justice and belonging. About our guests Gauri Sreenivasan (she/elle) is co-executive director of the Canadian Council for Refugees, a leading voice for the rights, protection, sponsorship, settlement, and well-being of refugees and migrants, in Canada and globally.

Jacqueline Flores (Asháninka Indigenous People, Peru) thinks that being a plant doctor is not a title—it is an ancient science of direct encounter. One must take the plants, ingest them, allow them to move through the body, and speak. This is a knowledge revealed slowly, through dreams and disciplined diets, where the plants themselves become teachers.As a traditional healer of the Asháninka people—one of the Amazon's most profound guardians of medicinal plant wisdom—Jacqueline embodies a way of healing rooted in time, reciprocity, and deep attention. She speaks critically of urban worlds that have severed their ties with nature, trading connection for chemical quick fixes that soothe but do not truly cure.True healing, she reminds us, is a slow unfolding. It asks us to relearn how to listen—to the plants, to the forest, to the more-than-human voices that have not stopped speaking.

Decolonizing Ukraine, by Dr. Greta Lynn Uehling, illuminates the untold stories of Russia's occupation of Crimea from 2014 to the present, revealing the traumas of colonization, foreign occupation, and population displacement. Drawing upon extensive fieldwork in Ukraine, including over 90 personal interviews, Dr. Uehling brings her readers into the lives of people who opposed Russia's Crimean operation, many of whom fled for government-controlled Ukraine. Via the narratives of people who traversed perilous geographies and world-altering events, Dr. Uehling traces the development of a new sense of social cohesion that encompasses diverse ethnic and religious groups. The result is a compelling story—one of resilience, transformation, and ultimately, the unwavering pursuit of freedom and autonomy for Ukraine, regardless of ethnicity or race. Decolonizing Ukraine: Indigenous People, Race, and the Pathway to Freedom demonstrates how understanding Crimea is essential to understanding Ukraine – and the war with Russia – today. Our guest is: Dr. Greta Uehling, who is an anthropologist specializing in the study of war, conflict, and population displacement.

When the gates on The Dalles Dam closed in 1957, Celilo Falls was flooded and a vital salmon fishery for Yakama and Warm Springs tribal people was forever changed. Warm Springs Tribal Elder Linda Meanus was a young girl at the time, being raised by her grandparents, Flora Thompson and Chief Tommy Thompson, in nearby Celilo Village. In that bustling community along the Columbia River where salmon provided sustenance and a way of life, she learned about the importance of first foods, and gained an abiding reverence for her Indigenous culture and language. More than six decades later, Meanus has written “My Name is LaMoosh,” a chronicle of her early life in Celilo Village and a tribute to the legacy of her grandmother to whom the book is dedicated. We first spoke with Meanus in June 2021 about the release of her book which as published by OSU Press in collaboration with Confluence and historian Katy Barber.

Bruno Pereira has been considered one of the great Indigenous protectors of his generation. And this has made him an enemy of a man called Amarildo da Costa de Oliveira, also known as Pelado. The Guardian's Latin America correspondent Tom Phillips reports on the story of these two men – Bruno and Pelado – and what happened when their paths collide
In the summer of 2021, the world was captivated by the story of Gabby Petito, a young woman who went missing and was later found murdered in Wyoming. While her story is heartbreaking, the widespread media coverage concerning her case revealed something equally disturbing - the disproportionate attention to cases of missing young, conventionally attractive white women, compared to cases involving missing people of color, particularly those of Indigenous women. In honor of Missing and Murdered Indigenous People Awareness month we bring attention to two Indigenous women whose stories did not receive the same media attention as Gabby's (and others like her), but are deserved of equal recognition and remembrance.
