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.

Hello Sixteenth Minute heads! We'll be back next week with a brand new interview with the guy from the ~*sHe cAmE dOwN iN a bUbBlE bRo*~ video, but this week we are re-airing our episode on the 2015 phenomenon of The Dress.

No, no, I refuse to argue with you about it — but the story of The Dress is the dying breath of a pre-algorithm driven social media, the peak of Buzzfeed, and contains some dark truths about the internet.

This is a live recording from Saturday, October 13 at the Chicago Marathon Expo. WRS host Cherie Turner teamed up with Cindy Kuzma of the Starting Line 1928 podcast to co-host a conversation with members of the Native Women Run (NWR) running the 2024 Chicago Marathon—Angel Tadytin, Birdie Wermy, Jessica Louis, and Amber Henderson—along with NWR founder Verna Volker. We heard the running stories of these women: why they run marathons, what inspired them to want to run as part of the NWR team, the importance of representation and community, and what their strategies and goals were for the 2024 Chicago Marathon. The conversation was thoughtful, insightful, and inspiring. Verna Volker is from the Navajo Nation, and she is the founder of NWR. She grew up in the Blanca canyon area of New Mexico, but currently lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota, with her husband and four children. She founded NWR in January 2018 due to the lack of representation of native women in the running world; her aim is for NWR to create space for and elevate native women runners. Jessica Louis is a Navajo woman from New Mexico. She is a stay-at-home educator, and the Chicago Marathon marks her second 26.2-mile journey. Amber Henderson is from the Turtle Mountain Chippewa tribe in South Dakota, Henderson is a tenured associate professor of management and interim department chair of Finance, Banking and Financial Services, Accounting and Business Law at Northern State University. The 2024 Chicago Marathon was her debut in the distance. Angel Tadytin is also from the Navajo Nation and works as a school social worker. She is also part of the NWR leadership team. The Chicago Marathon was her third marathon, after Boston and NYC. Birdie Wermy is a member of the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes of Oklahoma now residing in Oregon. Wermy serves as a behavioral health project manager at the NW Portland Area Indian Health Board. The 2024 Chicago Marathon was her seventh marathon. Starting Line 1928 is an oral history project dedicated to preserving the stories of women pioneers in distance running. Through longform interviews and profiles, the podcast chronicles their fight to break down barriers and achieve equality. It was founded in 2020 by Cindy Kuzma, Cara Hawkins-Jedlicka, Freddi Carlip, and Johanna Gretschel and is supported by the Theodore Corbitt Institute for Running History Research.

Another City of Winnipeg fake public consultation, and the Premier admits his approved drug-use site will adversely affect the neighbours, are the focus of Episode 8. Part 1- A recap of recent episodes and Winnipeg Sun columns; Marty also notes the passing of two politically-connected matriarchs in the community. Olga Fuga and Katherine Morrisseau-Sinclair both had controversial tenures heading non-profits - Fuga in the 1980's at the Citizenship Council of Manitoba and KMS around 10 years ago at the Native Women's Transition Centre. The saga with Fuga made headlines, while newsrooms scurried away from the KMS controversy in fear of her husband Murray. Later this summer you'll hear more about their obsession with power, our investigations into their actions, and how the lingering ill-will after they left their organizations affected their reputations. Get a copy of Retropeg when you donate to our $5600 Summer funding drive! Email- martygoldlive@gmail.com 14.05 Part 2- "We have a plan to move transportation into the future" announced the City on Monday. But 'TRANSPORTATION 2050: Reimagined Mobility' is based on far-fetched ideological goals like "Winnipeggers make 50 percent of trips by walking, cycling, transit and ride sharing by 2050." In the winter? We call BS. It smells a lot like '15 Minute Cities' and it's tied into a broader plan for the "Metropolitan Region" that shifts decisions about your community to a board of political overlords from surrounding municipalities. As Marty explains, the last thing the urban visionary cultists at City Hall want is genuine engagement with residents affected by their schemes. So, they rig council approval by holding fake consultations. 'Pop-up public events' being held on short notice (barely 24 hours for the event at St. Vital Mall for starters) will supposedly garner public feedback. The locations and schedule - all shopping malls and none on weekends - are designed to exclude working people with 9-5 jobs who would ask tough questions. You'll hear how buried on page 26 is a claim that policies will "Improve speed and avoid delays for emergency vehicles. • Design streets with emergency vehicles in mind". Since City Hall never once consulted with the WRHA or St. Boniface Hospital about throttling traffic flow on Goulet - we call BS on that too.

At the "Safer Consumption Site Announcement" held a few days later, seemingly none of the reporters there mentioned Kinew's concerns about public safety. Neither did the "harm reduction" champions, some of whom instead lamented that the NDP isn't planning to hand out free drugs to users- yet. 38.00 We identify some of the 'experts' steering the project, and review the experiences of people in BC, Calgary and Ontario who deal with the disgusting and dangerous fallout when a drug den is licenced in their neighborhoods. 43.05 - Local reaction questioned how keeping addicts hooked helps anyone but the poverty industry. 51.30- Hear audio of cops in London identifying the diversion of "safe supply" to organized crime rings. Other things never mentioned in media reports about the site, which our analysis indicates will go somewhere near Siloam Mission north of Logan Avenue: No targets for getting addicts into recovery, no explanation how it will get people using contaminated drugs at home and dying to go to the site to have it tested, and nothing about a reduction in discarded needles. But it will create an army of employees who will depend on there being a continuing stream of drug addicts to justify their paycheques- and new dangers for the people who live and work nearby. Coming up- another interview with a City councilor! THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT

Coven, our annual Reparations Fundraiser is complete for 2024 and we're thrilled to share that we beat last year's tally and have officially returned over THIRTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS to indigenous-led organizations and non-profits that support survivors of domestic violence and violently displaced people around the world. $3490 of that went directly to the Native Women's Shelter of Montreal. Amy's prescription is Redbone's Come And Get Your Love. Because you deserve it, we all do, and it's here for you! We did it. We came together. It's beautiful. It's been such an amazing thing to witness because we know you don't have tons of extra money lying around, it's so beautiful to see the sacrifices you are willing to make in the name of reparations, in the name of this coming together. We especially want to shout out some of our top donors: Claire, Julie, Sarah, Karen, and especially Brienne who has been our top donor for the past two years. We love you so much. We're so grateful you've chosen to be part of this coven. Please keep the spirit of this action going throughout the year - follow indigenous leadership, artists and authors, learn about the First Nations people of your native land, educate yourself and others on the landback movement, consider how to make reparations in any way you can: donate, celebrate, protest, support!! Or just give your neighbours a helping hand... The Rx. episode takes a sharp left turn at this point, as Risa brings a request for a prescription she recently received from a friend. We unpack it together to see what we can offer a young Witch and her mom as they navigate how to live with and/or dispose of an object weighted with darkness and heartbreak. We talk about the weird psychology of freezer spells and the power of making our own rituals in times of pain or transition. Amy offers the perfect prescription song for our querent and for all of us, it's Argent's Dance In The Smoke.

Numerous studies over the years point out the overrepresentation of Native American women in U.S. prisons. The Sentencing Project found a 525% increase over more than 20 years in the incarceration of women and girls. Juvenile Native American girls had the highest rate, at more than four times that of their white counterparts. We'll talk about the factors driving a growing trend and what advocates are doing to turn the numbers around. GUESTS Dr. Carma Corcoran (Cree), director of the Indian Law Program at the Lewis and Clark Law School and adjunct professor in the Indigenous Nations Studies program at Portland State University Dr. Laurie Walker, assistant teaching professor at the Department of Native American Studies at Montana State University   Dean Williams, independent consultant

The future of Native agriculture depends on educating new generations of farmers and securing tribal water rights. Those are two of the conclusions from this year's State of Native Agriculture Address. Federal ag agency leaders and Native non-profit ag representatives also praise new federal financial support programs and express the need make sure tribes' interests are addressed in the overdue Farm Bill. Out on the land, it's ramp (wild onion) season and time for cooks to share new and traditional wild onion dishes. And, for Women's History Month, we're focusing on the mothers, grandmothers, and ancestral matriarchs who keeping Indigenous foods alive. The Menu is our regular feature on Indigenous food sovereignty hosted and produced by Andi Murphy.

Shuttering foster and group homes, parading like a fashionista at the United Nations, holding court for a compliant media after dodging opposition criticism in Question Period - it's a wonder Nahanni Fontaine has found time to get her nails done this month. But the Manitoba Families Minister has set tongues wagging after whining about how her BFF, police chief Danny Smyth, correctly laid the blame at her feet for kids in the care of her department behind a wave of slashing, robbing and mugging innocent people in Winnipeg. Part 1- The matriarch of the radical NDP caucus, Nahanni Fontaine has darted in and out of the headlines in March. The MSM has avoided assessing her race-baiting history, narcissistic self-promotion, and selective moral outrage. In Episode 30, we tie it all into her handling of the Spirit Rising House foster care contracts for 13 facilities, and her drive-by smear of the police chief's concerns about violent youths. 9.00- While the Children's Advocate criticized Spirit Rising for providing pot to kids to keep them away from seeking drugs on the street, she added there's no harm reduction strategy for kids in care, "a systemic failure that will lead to continued long-term harm for children and youth across the province." Despite only 2 of the homes being implicated in the practice, Fontaine decided to order that over 30 kids be pulled from all the homes. 13.05- Parents blasted Fontaine and the NDP for thinking it's ok to hand out drug use kits for meth addicts as "harm reduction" - but dropping the hammer over cannabis. “It's saving my daughter's life and keeping her away from the harder street drugs she was addicted to. I don't have any problem with that... They took her to AA meetings, they did everything — they're teachers, they're parents where the parents aren't, they're therapists.” We examine if Fontaine's agenda to throttle services that save the lives of Level 5 kids is to undermine the owners. 18.00 - Right after Fontaine took an entourage on her role-playing eastern tour, Danny Smyth told the press about terrifying attacks across the city with a common denominator- perps that are wards of Fontaine's department. He said "attention needs to be addressed to the needs of these kids that are in the system." Then, Fontaine came back, obviously flustered. 25:20 Part 2- "Heads-up would've been nice, Fontaine says of chief" wrote the Free Press. And when the Tories blasted her "jet-setting" and social media obsession in Question Period, "Fontaine didn't respond to their questions but agreed to a media interview in her office." She sneered about “pockets” of violent incidents, denied any failure, and expressed no remorse for the traumatized victims of these thugs. Not even for the women. But as you'll hear, Fontaine has a history of picking and choosing which victims she'd help- and if their oppressors were her allies, they'd be talking to the hand. Did she stand by as Aboriginal Women's Advisor when the NDP diverted federal benefits for kids in care, or did she raise her voice? We're within $1300 of our $3800 fundraising goal- help push us over the line at our ⁠⁠Donate page⁠⁠ - it's easier than ever to make a contribution! 39.30- After claiming Smyth's remarks could fuel anti-indigenous racism, Fontaine raised eyebrows with a comment about Smyth having her personal cel number. While Premier Kinew called her an "inspiration", a rally at the Legislature by kids being forced to move before Easter after thriving with Spirit Rising House foster parents and guardians, had a different view of Fontaine's edict. Marty Gold reviews past occasions, such as when staff and clients from the Native Women's Transition Centre begged Fontaine for help dealing with a well-connected director engineering a toxic workplace, and Fontaine refused to stand with those in need. She gets no real analysis or criticism from the Winnipeg media, but those that deal with Nahanni Fontaine have learned she's no inspiration.

In this episode of the Sentinel, we celebrate the start of Women's History Month this March by exploring the gender pay gap –  an issue that not only affects Native women, but also their families and communities as well. As the United States recently commemorated the 15th Anniversary of the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, some news outlets have recently announced progress in narrowing the pay gap. However, deep and pervasive inequality still exists for Native women. In this episode, we discuss recent research stating their earnings at 51 cents on the dollar compared to white men. There is a critical need to address this statistic, so join us as we discuss this important subject that touches on issues of gender equity, economic well-being and security, family stability, caregiving, and more.

On this special episode of Our Body Politic produced in partnership with Level Forward, we highlight the Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women's (MMIW) crisis. Guest-host Andrea Ambam, an Artist and Host of Level Forward's More to Talk About, speaks with Lorna Cuny, a member of the Oglala Lakota Sioux Tribe from South Dakota and Co-Chair and Co-Founder of the Medicine Wheel Ride and Darlene Gomez, attorney at her law firm Darlene Law, who serves on the MMIW-R Task Force for New Mexico and is General Counsel for Medicine Wheel Ride, about The Medicine Wheel Riders, a national group raising awareness about the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women's crisis. Then Andrea Ambam speaks with Alecia Onzahwah, about her efforts to arm Indigenous women with information (through The Skye Woman Project) and tools to defend themselves (through Skye Woman Beauty). We round out the show with Andrea speaking with Prairie Rose Seminole, co-director of the documentary We Ride for Her about owning the Native narrative through community filmmaking.

First we share a report from Yurok country, in the Pacific Northwest. The largest dam removal in U.S. history has entered a critical phase, with the lowering of dammed reservoirs on the Klamath River, with members of the Yurok Tribe leading the effort. We use this as an example of why Indigenous people must be leading the efforts of conservation, which is the basis of the Land Back movement discussed in this show. We also include a brief report on the Northern California Hoopa Tribe's relation to water from ABC10 in Northern California, featuring Merv George of the Hoopa Tribe. Then we air an interview from 2023 of Dr. Cutcha Risling Baldy, Associate Professor and Department Chair of Native American Studies at Cal Poly Humboldt, on how radical imagination is required to forge a new, and also perhaps ancient way out of the injustices and destruction inherent in settler colonialism with the Land Back Movement. In the third segment, we air an excerpt from 'Restoring The River with the Yurok, Hupa and Karuk' from KCET's Tending Nature, Season 2, Episode 3 [https://youtu.be/8kZac1ZCtcE?si=NTvrPPX2uycf-y46]. It features Rosie Clyburn the Yurok Tribe Heritage Preservation Officer, Bob McConnel, of the Yurok Tribe and Executive Director of the Cultural Fire Management Council, Charley Reed, Karuk-Yurok-Hupa fisherman, and Tiana Williams, a Yurok Condor Biologist. Dr. Cutcha Risling Baldy is the Co-Director of the Cal Poly Humboldt Native American Studies Food Sovereignty Lab & Traditional Ecological Knowledges Institute. Her book: We Are Dancing For You: Native Feminisms and the Revitalization of Women's Coming-of-Age Ceremonies received “Best First Book in Native American and Indigenous Studies,” at the 2019 Native American Indigenous Studies Association Conference. She is also the volunteer Executive Director of the Native Women's Collective [http://www.nativewomenscollective.org/], a nonprofit organization that supports the continued revitalization of Native American arts and culture.

Dr. Veronica E. Velarde Tiller shares insights from her extensive work and experience, in this episode with co-hosts Dr. Farina King and Eva Bighorse, recognizing ways that Native Nations thrive. Tiller is a member of the Jicarilla Apache Nation. She earned a Ph.D. in American History with a focus on Native American history at the University of New Mexico. She retired after over 40 years as the CEO of Tiller Research, Inc. in Albuquerque. Her life's work in promoting Native American history from Native perspectives has reached a national and international audience through her teaching of Native histories in college, development of educational curriculum, publications, lectures (including at the United Nations), preservation of her Native language with the re-translation of the 1911 Jicarilla Apache Texts under a National Science Foundation grant, and consultation with private and governmental business sectors. She has consulted for films such as A Thousand Voices (2014) on Native Women in New Mexico. She is best known for The Jicarilla Apache Tribe: A History 1846-1970 (1983) and the award-winning Tiller's Guide to Indian Country: Economic Profiles of American Indian Reservations (three editions), the authoritative reference guide to 567 modern-day Native Nations. In 2017, the City of Albuquerque honored Tiller on the Wall of Fame for Tiller's Guide. Harvard University's American Indian Economic Development Google MAP database uses the economic data that Tiller compiled.Additional resources:Veronica E.

Suzanne Methot is a highly accomplished author with an impressive track record in creating and applying equity and anti-oppression frameworks. Her non-fiction book, Legacy: Trauma, Story, and Indigenous Healing, has won several awards, and she has also co-authored the Grade 11 textbook Aboriginal Beliefs, Values, and Aspirations, and contributed to Scholastic's Take Action series of elementary classroom resource books. Suzanne's upcoming YA book, Killing the Wittigo: Indigenous Culture-Based Approaches to Waking Up, Taking Action, and Doing the Work of Healing, is set to be published in June 2023. In her interview on Nicolette's Fourth PhD podcast episode, Suzanne offers insights that go beyond the conventional risk factors cited by the government and scientists for disproportionate rates of diabetes and chronic disease in BIPOC communities. She provides a nuanced perspective on the impact of colonization, control, complex PTSD, voicelessness, intergenerational trauma, brain fog, monoculture, the credentials barrier, and multinational corporations' control over food security and inputs for growing. Suzanne debunks commonly held beliefs about poverty and the "thrifty gene" and explores the opportunities for creating a better future through re-learning, knowledge-sharing, consulting with those who hold cultural and ceremonial knowledge, and taking care of marginalized people. She emphasizes the importance of sharing stories and seeing to address the challenges faced by Indigenous communities. Suzanne's extensive experience in advocacy and direct-service positions at Indigenous-led organizations, including the Native Women's Resource Centre of Toronto, the Anishinabek Nation (Health and Environment Program), the YWCA Elm Centre, and West Neighbourhood House, underscores her commitment to serving community members healing from intergenerational trauma and reclaiming culture while facing racism, poverty, homelessness, health issues, addictions, mental-health challenges, crime, and victimization. Find Suzanne Methot at:Website: www.suzannemethot.caFacebook: @SuzanneMethotAuthorLinkedIn: @SuzanneMethotYouTube: @SuzanneMethotBook: Legacy: Trauma, Story, and Indigenous Healing - https://a.co/d/enJ9v78 Discussed on the PODCAST:Book – Trauma and Recovery, Judith Lewis Herman - https://a.co/d/7GiHoVhAnishnawbe Health Toronto – www.aht.caMaslow's Hierarchy of Needs - https://simplypsychology.org/maslow.htmlTurtle Island Creation - http://bit.ly/3FSUSIZBook – The Prophecy of the Seven Fires of the Anishinaabe - https://caid.ca/SevFir013108.pdfSally Gaikezheyongai - https://vtape.org/video?vi=5664Aboriginals Healing Foundations List - Intergeneration Impacts - https://bit.ly/3FVpCZD Learn More:Ready to launch your career as a certified Metabolic Nutrition & Detox Coach?

Native women are more likely to die during or shortly after childbirth than any other group in Washington state. Now, a nonprofit in the Seattle area is trying to tackle that with a new approach: cash.

In the final installment of Many Things, all members of the family recount their experience of the "final night." Sarah's father reaches out to a First Nations coworker for help, and to his surprise, he tells him that his brother is a sort of medicine man and would be willing to do a ritual on the next full moon. When that day comes, they all gather at Sarah and Cameron's house to confront whatever is inside.

Historian Alejandra Dubcovsky tells a story of war, slavery, loss, remembrance, and the women whose resilience and resistance transformed the colonial South. In exploring their lives she rewrites early American history, challenging the established male-centered narrative. In Talking Back: Native Women and the Making of the Early South (Yale UP, 2023), Dubcovsky reconstructs the lives of Native women—Timucua, Apalachee, Chacato, and Guale—to show how they made claims to protect their livelihoods, bodies, and families. Through the stories of the Native cacica who demanded her authority be recognized; the elite Spanish woman who turned her dowry and household into a source of independent power; the Floridiana who slapped a leading Native man in the town square; and the Black woman who ran a successful business at the heart of a Spanish town, Dubcovsky reveals the formidable women who claimed and used their power, shaping the history of the early South.

The mortality rate for Native American women during pregnancy and childbirth have outpaced most other ethnic groups for decades. The latest numbers just published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) show Native maternal mortality far exceeds their white, Black, and Asian counterparts in some states — especially in the upper Midwest. We'll look at the causes and trends for high Native pregnancy death rates and what health professionals say is the solution.

In July of 2020, a Washington woman went missing after leaving her community garden. The next day, her car was found in downtown Tacoma on fire, and days after that, her body was discovered outside of Seattle. Police initially zeroed in on her boyfriend and ex-boyfriend until they discovered that she'd been going on dates with men from dating apps. This is the story of Diana Davis.

Anita is joined by the five time Paralympic gold medallist Ellie Simmonds to discuss her new documentary where she sets out to find her birth parents. Ellie was adopted within months of being born and whilst she has always known she was adopted, she hasn't previously tried to find her birth parents, until now. Five times Grammy award winner, the bassist, lyricist and composer, Esperanza Spalding has become a prominent voice in the jazz world. At 38 she has released eight albums and has collaborated with many distinguished artists, including Terri Lyne Carrington and Toni Visconti. She talks to Anita from the Netherlands, where she will perform at the North Sea Jazz Festival. Canada has a history of disproportionate violence faced by indigenous women, which was called a genocide by a national public inquiry in 2019. The Native Women's Association of Canada has counted the names of more than 4,000 Indigenous women they believe have been murdered over the last three decades. Brandi Morin is an award-winning journalist who is Cree, Iroquois, French Canadian and puts the abuses suffered by indigenous Canadians front and centre in her work. She joins Anita to explain why. Caitlin Moran's multi-award-winning bestseller How to Be a Woman has been published in 28 countries. Now she has turned her attention to men, what's wrong with them, what they should do about it and why they need feminism to help. Caitlin joins Anita to discuss her new book What About Men? Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Rebecca Myatt Studio manager: Gayl Gordon

Data from Wells Fargo just last year finds women outperform men when it comes to investment performance. That backs up a number of studies that say women are less apt to take big risks that can backfire. At the same time, a new survey by Glassdoor finds almost two-thirds of women in finance believe they're getting paid less than their male counterparts. Some programs are working to encourage more Native women to enter the finance industry for their own good and the good of their communities.

We discuss how genocide still impacts Native women with two members of the Coalition to Stop Violence Against Native Women (CSVANW). Angel Charley and Florida Olguin shed light on the enduring legacy of genocide and sexual violence in the U.S. today, and explain why it is so difficult to bring accountability for crimes of trafficking and of domestic and sexual violence.Click here to support the Coalition to Stop Violence Against Native Women (CSVANW).This episode is supported by Indiana University's Presidential Arts and Humanities Program, the Tobias Center, the African Studies Program, the Center for the Study of the Middle East, and the Huh Jum Ok Human Rights Foundation.Sound editing by Emily Leisz Carr, mixing by Seth Olansky, music "Souffle Nocturne" by Ben Cohen.Production by Shilla Kim and Clémence Pinaud.

Jessica Alva Khadija Rose Britton. Hanna Harris. Anthonette Christine Cayedito. If you haven't heard of these women, it's no surprise. They're four of the untold number of Indigenous women and girls who have been murdered, kidnapped or gone mysteriously missing.  A significant number of victims are from communities that are subjected to the harmful presence of fossil fuel and mining companies. The extractive industry is ravaging Native nations where oil and blood have long run together. Add to this a dysfunctional police and legal hierarchy that leaves Indigenous women and their families with little support during the first crucial hours when they go missing, and little recourse to prosecute predators for their crimes. In this program, powerful Native women leaders reveal the crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous women, and describe how they are taking action and building growing movements, including with non-Native allies. Morning Star Gali, Ozawa Bineshi Albert, Simone Senogles, Kandi White, and Casey Camp Horinek.   ***These stories are shocking, harrowing and heartbreaking.

Lozen (Chiricahua Apache) was known as a fearless warrior, battle strategist, and healer in New Mexico and Arizona. Buffalo Calf Road Woman (Northern Cheyenne) fought next to her husband at the Battle of Little Bighorn and was even believed to have delivered the fatal blow to George Armstrong Custer. Today on Native America Calling, as we wrap up National Women's History Month, we learn more about these two Native female warriors and others with Carol Murray ([Blackfeet] Pikuni), retired administrator for the Blackfeet Community College; Eryn Wise (Jicarilla Apache and Laguna Pueblo), land and body sovereignty advocate; and Sgt.

May 26, 1986. Frobisher Bay, Northwest Territories. After returning home from a trip, the sister of 15-year old Mary Ann Birmingham enters their residence and discovers that Mary Ann has been stabbed to death. Months later, a local resident named Jopie Atsiqtaq pops up on the radar as a potential suspect after he is charged with the similar stabbing deaths of two other victims. Even though Atsiqtaq is initially charged with killing Mary Ann, he denies any involvement and since the evidence is deemed insufficient for him to stand trial, the crime is never solved. Mary Ann Birmingham's murder is just the first case we'll be covering on this week's special episode of “The Trail Went Cold” about missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls from Northern Canada. In total, we'll be exploring nine unsolved cold cases involving Indigenous female victims which took place in Nunavut and the Northwest Territories. The nine victims are 15-year old Ann Birmingham, 38-year old Tabitha Kalluk, 46-year old Della “Jochebed” Ootoova, 18-year old Leona Brule, 15-year old Charlene Catholique, 24-year old Mary Rose Keadjuk, 17-year old Mariella Lennie, 39-year old Dorothy Abel and 22-year old Angela Meyer. If you have information about the murder of Mary Ann Birmingham, please contact the Iqaluit detachment of the RCMP at (867) 979-0123. If you have information about any of the other featured cases from the Northwest Territories, please contact their RCMP's Historical Case Unit at (867) 669-1111. If you have information about any of the featured cases from Nunavut, please contact the Canadian Crime Stoppers Association at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

In August of 1993, a 16-year-old Indigenous girl went missing in Hawaii after going out with a friend. Earlier that day, she and her friend had been picked up by a hitchhiker who asked them to hang out later, but despite this detail, Police initially believed she had run away. Years later, they would finally received a confession that detailed the horrible truth about what happened to her the night she disappeared. This is the story of Sequoya Vargas.
