What does it mean to say that rape is not a crime of passion, but a tool of conquest? In this searing episode, Matika sits down with Chief Justice Sarah Deer—legal scholar, citizen of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation, and longtime advocate for Native women—to break down the root causes of the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and People (MMIWP) crisis. Together, they trace the systemic failures—from jurisdictional loopholes and underfunded Tribal justice systems to harmful stereotypes and state indifference—that enable violence against Native people to persist across generations.Sarah shares insights from decades of research, courtroom advocacy, and lived experience. She explains why the word “rape” still matters, how U.S. law continues to reflect colonial patriarchy, and what tribal sovereignty has to do with personal safety. With clarity and care, she connects the dots between land theft, gender-based violence, and narrative erasure—and offers a vision for Indigenous feminist legal theory that centers survivor agency and collective healing.This is a vital episode for anyone who wants to understand the roots of violence and the pathways to justice in Indian Country.Learn more about Sarah Deer's work at sarahdeer.com.Educational Reading & Reports• Sarah Deer's The Beginning and End of Rape is essential reading on how U.S. law enables violence against Native women—and how we can reclaim justice through sovereignty and Indigenous feminist legal theory.

This week on APTN News InFocus, host Cierra Bettens examines the years-long fight to search the Prairie Green landfill and the delays that kept families waiting. In December 2022, Cambria Harris stood on Parliament Hill, pleading for a search of the landfill where her mother, Morgan Harris, and others were believed to be. Despite her calls for action, it took two more years for the search to begin. APTN News senior online journalist Kathleen Martens joins us to break down the timeline and the latest developments. • • • APTN National News, our stories told our way.

The death of a 14-year-old San Carlos Apache girl is spurring questions nationally about what could have been done to prevent the tragedy. Emily Pike's remains were found three weeks after she went missing from a Mesa, Ariz. group home. A candlelight vigil over the weekend honored her memory. At least one other community event is scheduled. Her death also comes after authorities identified the remains found at a Winnipeg landfill as one of the women suspected to be a victim of a serial killer. We'll hear about both cases in context of pressure to improve the outcomes for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women.

**Content Warning: This episode includes discussion of sexual and domestic violence. In this week's episode of then & now, LCHP Assistant Director Dr. Rose Campbell is joined by Dr. Shannon Speed to discuss systemic violence against Indigenous women. According to a 2016 study, Indigenous women are 10 times more likely to be kidnapped or murdered than almost any other population group in the United States. Although murder is the third leading cause of death among Indigenous women, these cases often go unsolved and unreported and attract little attention outside of local communities. Shannon discusses the policies that render Indigenous women particularly vulnerable to violence and underscores the impact of settler capitalism—specifically white supremacy and patriarchal ideologies—not only in the U.S. but also in the colonial history of Mexico. Compounding these factors is the jurisdictional vacuum found in Indian country, where U.S. federal laws have severely limited the ability of tribal law enforcement and tribal courts to prosecute violent crimes. In order to address the deep-seated structural and ideological factors that generate and perpetuate this cycle of violence against Indigenous women, Shannon advocates for a tribal sovereignty framework informed by a concern for human rights that aims to interrupt the cycle of violence and focus on a restorative rather than a more punitive approach.Dr. Shannon Speed is a tribal citizen of the Chickasaw Nation of Oklahoma. She is Director of the American Indian Studies Center (AISC) and Professor of Gender Studies and Anthropology at UCLA. Dr. Speed has worked for the last two decades in Mexico and in the United States on issues of indigenous autonomy, sovereignty, gender, neoliberalism, violence, migration, social justice, and activist research. Her recent work, Incarcerated Stories: Indigenous Women Migrants and Violence in the Settler Capitalist State (University of North Carolina Press 2019), won the Best Subsequent Book Award of the Native American and Indigenous Studies Association in 2019 and a CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title award in 2020. She has a new co-edited volume entitled Heightened States of Injustice: Activist Research on Indigenous Women and Violence (University of Arizona Press 2021). Dr. Speed was the President of the Native American and Indigenous Studies Association (NAISA) from 2019-2020.  Further ReadingNative Hope; National Indigenous Women's Resource Center; Violence Against Women Act (VAWA); Oliphant v.

Episode 2 of Shringaar Stories In this episode, we dive deeper into the "why" of certain aesthetic practices in Nepal's Newa and Tharu communities. These practices have survived the test of globalisation and modernisation and women remain to be the living historians of keeping these traditions alive. Along with signifying the unspoken bond between mother and daughter, these practices symbolise indigenous identity and are important for the community to continue thriving. Even though at risk, intangible culture in indigenous communities in Nepal still have the hope of survival with the current generation's curiosities and efforts.

Violence against Indigenous women is a pervasive and multifaceted issue that includes physical, sexual, emotional, and economic abuse, often rooted in the historical and ongoing impacts of colonization, racism, and systemic inequality. Indigenous women face disproportionately high rates of violence, including intimate partner violence, human trafficking, and murder, frequently exacerbated by the lack of access to justice and inadequate responses from law enforcement. In this radio program, Cultural Survival's Dev Kumar Sunuwar speaks to Yasso Kanti Bhattachan (Thakali) to learn more about the unique forms of violence faced by Indigenous women of Nepal.

On this episode of Appointed, Senator Pate speaks with The Honourable Marion Buller, Chancellor of the University of Victoria and former Chief Commissioner of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, and the first Indigenous woman appointed as a judge in British Columbia.The two discuss the connections between poverty, violence against Indigenous women and girls, the mass incarceration and institutionalization of Indigenous women, and the overarching violence of colonialism. Chancellor Buller's years of experience on the bench and as chief commissioner provide invaluable perspective vis-a-vis how to address miscarriages of justice experienced by Indigenous women, including via the Calls for Justice of the MMIWG, the proposed Miscarriage of Justice Reviews Act (Bill C-40), the Senator's report on the Miscarriages of Justices Experienced by 12 Indigenous Women, and Bills C-223 & S-233, both aimed at introducing a framework for a Guaranteed Livable Basic Income in Canada.MMIWG Call for Justice 4.5 directs the government to implement a Guaranteed Livable Basic Income, and 5.14 requires the federal and provincial governments to collaborate on a thorough evaluation of the impact that mandatory minimum sentences have on the over-incarceration of Indigenous women, girls and 2SLGBTQQIA+ People. Given the manner in which MMPs have contributed to the mass incarceration of racialized people, especially Indigenous women, like the TRC, the MMIWG expected the government to follow through on its commitment to repeal mandatory minimum penalties. Chancellor Buller and Senator Pate speak to the intersections of their work and respective struggles to achieve equality and justice.Content Warning: this episode mentions violence against women, rape, and murder.Episode Citations:Reclaiming Power and Place: The Final Report of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls  can be read online hereInjustices and Miscarriages of Justice Experienced by 12 Indigenous Women report can be read online hereBill C-40: An Act to amend the Criminal Code, to make consequential amendments to other Acts and to repeal a regulation (miscarriage of justice reviews) can be found hereBill S-233, An Act to develop a national framework for a guaranteed livable basic income can be found hereBill C-223,  An Act to develop a national framework for a guaranteed livable basic income can be found here

Award-winning Canadian investigative journalist Connie Walker had been telling stories about missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls for years, and wondering why they received so little attention. All this changed with her true-crime podcasts. Missing & Murdered and Stolen have been wildly popular, the latter winning a Pulitzer Prize and a Peabody Award. But despite the prizes and the millions of followers, in a climate where profitability is prioritised over important journalism Stolen is being axed by Spotify beyond the current third series.

On the latest Regional Roundup, we hear a story about an award-winning high school mariachi band from Uvalde, TX, which just wrapped up a tour of Boulder, Colorado. We also hear an interview on a new helpline for Indigenous Women in Utah. Plus, an interview with the film makers behind a new documentary about navigating housing and healthcare in Chaffee County, CO. To finish up, we hear a two-way with Derek Gow about his new book, Hunt for the Shadow Wolf, in which he explores the mythology, mystery and history of wolves, and their speckled history with our species.

Happy Earth Day! Listen as we talk about “Oppenheimer”, “Killers of the Flower Moon”, and the devastating connection between violence against the land and Native and Indigenous Women. Tia shares examples of the negative effects of extractive industries on Native communities and what people can do to help. The National Indigenous Women's Resource Center (NIWRC) recognizes that the land and Indigenous women are sacred and connected and must be protected. In this episode of "Speaking Our Truth," NIWRC's Policy Specialist Tia Bahozhoni highlights this sacred relationship by discussing how exploitation and contamination of the land continue to harm Indigenous women and communities.Join us this Earth Day as we honor and celebrate Mother Earth....ResourcesOsage Reign of Terror https://www.vox.com/culture/23920002/killers-flower-moon-true-story-osage-murders-reign-of-terror-mollie-burkhart-what-happenedLithium Mining in Nevada https://www.firstnations.org/stories/one-native-groups-fight-to-protect-sacred-land-from-destructive-lithium-mining/&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1713456054765671&usg=AOvVaw2XAg4P3L_uYIz83SzJa87E The Gold King Mine Spill https://coloradosun.com/2020/08/05/gold-king-mine-spill-five-years-later/&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1713456054767608&usg=AOvVaw0eJwLZ33OaqFrvsWc9X8Il Man Camps https://www.colorado.edu/program/fpw/2019/03/14/new-report-finds-increase-violence-coincides-oil-boom&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1713456054768511&usg=AOvVaw2OV-GMuACccqjfnltB5-xN History of Man Camps https://www.startribune.com/native-women-easy-prey-for-traffickers/218171361/&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1713456054769279&usg=AOvVaw30QDkpYhlnQMD_55L9Vlel “Garden of Truth” (MIWSAC) https://miwsacstg-media.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/01101738/Garden-of-Truth-Report.pdf “Shattered Hearts” (MIWSAC) https://www.miwrc.org/publications/shattered-heartsHistory of Uranium Mining https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3222290/Indigenous Stewardship https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31863549/ Indigenous Land and Data Stewards Lab https://www.indigenouslandstewards.org/ Tewa Women United - News Article on Oppenheimer https://tewawomenunited.org/2023/07/oppenheimer-and-the-other-side-of-the-storyCoalition to End Violence Against Native Women - resource on Land and Body Violence https://www.csvanw.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Land-and-Body-Violence.pdfViolence on Indigenous Lands is Violence on Indigenous Bodies and Futures https://www.niwrc.org/resources/webinars/violence-indigenous-lands-violence-indigenous-bodies-and-futuresIndigenous Leadership to End Violence Panel - Part 2: Indigenous Reproductive and Maternal Justice Work Strengthens Advocacy to End Gender-Based Violence https://www.niwrc.org/resources/webinars/indigenous-leadership-end-violence-panel-part-2-indigenous-reproductive-and Six Point Action Plan https://www.niwrc.org/sites/default/files/6-Point%20Plan%2002-17%20PNG.png...This resource is made possible by grant 90-EV-0533-03, from the Administration on Children, Youth and Families, Family and Youth Services Bureau, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

A bill just introduced in Canada would outlaw what most of the developed world has considered a human rights violation for decades. The law would prohibit sterilizing women without their consent. An Indigenous woman testified in front of lawmakers that she was sterilized without any prior discussion. Her mother was also sterilized without consent decades prior. The discussion comes as women from the U.S., Canada, and around the world confront past abuses of medical professionals who said they were working in the best interests of Indigenous woman. GUESTS Madonna Thunderhawk (Lakota), community worker with Standing Strong Grandmothers   Morningstar Mercredi (Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation), traditional oratory storyteller Kahsenniyo Kick (Mohawk) multi-disciplinary artist and sterilization survivor Anne Pilegaard Petersen, co-host of “Spiralkampagnen” podcast

We continue our conversation with Antonia Unaqsiq Commack a Missing and Murdered Indigenous Peoples advocate in Alaska. Antonia is Inupiaq from the Native Village of Shungnak and is a survivor herself of domestic abuse. Antonia is challenging the open letter to the community that the Kotzebue Chief of Police wrote addressing the suspicious deaths of Jennifer Kirk and Sue Sue Norton in Kotzebue, Alaska. The Chief's letter tries to assure the public that the investigation into these cases has been thorough, but Antonia points out all the holes in that story. Laura fills us in on the background of the horrific domestic violence these women suffered at the hands of their intimate partners before their deaths. The Kotzebue police have closed Jennifer's case, refusing to investigate it as a homicide.The lead investigator for Sue Sue Norton's case is Alaska MMIP investigator Lonnie Pisciya at907-764-3864Chief Roger Rouse office number is 907-442-3351Please go to the Lawless website to find out more: https://www.propublica.org/series/lawlessYou can listen to Invisible: Life and Death on the Reservation https://amzn.to/3UZTKvhYou can read the letter that the Kotzebue Chief Of Police released to the community here, scroll to the end of the City page:https://www.cityofkotzebue.comThen please also go and watch Antonia's incredible videos on TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@alaska.mmip You can also join: Missing and Murdered in Alaska Facebook Pagehttps://www.facebook.com/groups/1013590965769563/If you or someone you care about needs help please go over Laura's DASH checklist and take it to law enforcement.DASH www.dashriskchecklist.com You can get Laura's book here "Policing Domestic Violence" https://www.dashriskchecklist.com/resources/books#realcrimeprofile #TrueCrime #podcast #ExpertAnalysis #FBI #NewScotlandYard #CriminalBehavior #BehaviorAnalysis #rapist #coercivecontrol #stalker #survivor Follow us and continue the conversationOn Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/realcrimeprofile/?hl=enOn Twitterhttps://twitter.com/realcrimeprofilOn Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/realcrimeprofile/>>>>>>>>> SUPPORT OUR OTHER SHOWS

Who is killing the indigenous women of Alaska? Spoiler alert, it is not that hard to figure out if proper investigations had been done, yet time and time again, these victims' deaths are ignored, suspects are not questioned, evidence is not collected, autopsy reports are glossed over, known repeat offenders are not prosecuted, and on the rare occasions when they are prosecuted, judges are letting them go with less than a slap on the wrist. Joining us to discuss two such cases is victims' advocate Antonia Unaqsiq Commack of Missing and Murdered In Alaska, a group that often focuses on violence against Native Alaskans. Antonia is Inupiaq from the Native Village of Shungnak. Antonia herself has had two close friends murdered by their intimate partners and since 2017 has devoted herself to shouting loudly to make the public aware of the injustices going on in her community. Antonia takes us through the deaths of two women in Kotzebue, Alaska - Jennifer Kirk and Sue Sue Norton -- who died under extremely suspicious circumstances and who need to get much more attention from those in power to deliver justice. Their stories are just the tip of the iceberg.

Rosalie Fish is a member of the Cowlitz Tribe and a runner from the Muckleshoot Reservation in Auburn, Washington. She is a women's track and field athlete at the University of Washington, where she was recently selected for a prestigious Truman Scholarship from the Harry S. Truman Scholarship Foundation. She often runs and trains with a red painted handprint on her face, dedicated to Indigenous women and girls who have been killed or disappeared. Countless have gone missing, though numbers are hard to track for a variety of reasons. For example, as NativeHope.org notes, “The National Crime Information Center reports that, in 2016, there were 5,712 reports of missing American Indian and Alaska Native women and girls, though the US Department of Justice's federal missing person database, NamUs, only logged 116 cases.” Today on Change Agents, Rosalie talks about how this violence has affected her own family and indigenous communities around the country, and what can be done to address it.
