From a very young age he knew he was different in spirit, two-spirits to be exact. Yet, he pushed through, did the things that were expected of him, and yet, never lost sight of the essence of who he was. While he left the world of music for a time, the music never left him and the kaleidoscope of his life finally caught back up to him, nudging him back into his passion of music, story telling, and writing about the beauty of being an Indigiqueer artist and creative. Roger Kuhn talks about his two-spirit roots and being as well as talks about his new pop single Kaleidoscope and his new book Somacultural Liberation. About Roger Roger Kuhn's new single, “Kaleidoscope” - his first since signing with music label, So Fierce Music - is a dance song rooted in classic house and progressive EDM that asks listeners: what do you believe? and what does it mean to be free? For the artist, freedom is pursing his dreams and living his truth, which is why after working as a psychotherapist for the past decade, Kuhn decided to take time away from his practice and prioritize his creative expression once again.  “I love being a music artist,” explains the singer-songwriter whose breakout single from 2008, "What's Your Name," was crowned Song of the Year by the Stonewall Society for the Arts. “Even the lyrics in “Kaleidoscope” reflect on my joy,” Kuhn continues.  “I sing about flying through the sky, never being so high, and how I can't believe I'm not falling.  That's who I am when I am performing live or writing songs.  I am living my ultimate purpose and celebrating my authentic self.” Roger Kuhn's real self includes being a bi-racial, bi-cultural, Two-Spirit Indigiqueer artist.  His father was of German and Russian descent and his mother is a Poarch Creek woman.   He recalls his childhood in rural North Dakota as being a mix of curiosity and wonder where he would spend hours meandering through the forests on the family farm, singing and writing songs.  Sadly, there were moments of horror, too, as his father was an abusive alcoholic who terrorized Roger's family.  The pain was further exacerbated by the young boy's feelings of isolation as he began to question his gender and sexual orientation. Roger says his gender is best described as circular, meaning he is not on a fixed binary.   It is the same with his sexuality.   “Gender and sexual orientation can be seen through a kaleidoscopic lens,” he explains.  “When you peer through a kaleidoscope you see multiples shapes, colors, expressions, and beauty, which is what life is like if we allow ourselves to see beyond the ordinary.” Connect With Roger Website Facebook Instagram

Tyra is an advanced standing MSW student at Washington University in St. Louis, a photographer and activist of the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Peoples Movement, an advocate for Indigenous women who have experienced violence, and a speaker about mental health in Indigenous Country. She talks about the work she is doing with the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation in Mayetta, Kansas, to address youth suicide and substance abuse. We discuss how much of social work education and mental health interventions are Eurocentric, which makes it a challenge to find ways that will work for Indigenous communities, but how Tyra is addressing this in her work, using networking and approaches that honor community, tradition, and culture. Tyra talks about being part of the Buder Scholars program, where she and others have access to an Indigenous curriculum and how it has helped her to learn decolonizing approaches to this work. She emphasizes the importance of community in healing and getting back to pre-colonial ways. Tyra also talks about her work with Meskwaki RISE, a program supporting and empowering Indigenous survivors of domestic violence or sexual assault. She discusses Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW), specifically the disappearance of Rita Papakee, who is from her community, and what we can all do to end this violence. Tyra also shares why she does this work. I hope this conversation inspires you to action. Instagram: tyra.w.flowers Twitter: @tyerista Tik Tok: @tyrista Meskwaki RISE Meskwaki RISE Facebook

Ep 312 - Reclaiming Power and Place Guest: Marion Buller   “Persistent and deliberate human and indigenous rights violations and abuses are the root causes behind Canada’s staggering rates of violence against indigenous women, girls and Two-Spirited people.” This is stated in the final report of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls. The numbers are horrible: indigenous women, girls and Two-Spirited individuals are 12 times more likely to experience violence and seven times more likely to be murdered.   Chief Commissioner Marion Buller says, “The inquiry was gut wrenching. It was difficult to hear the stories of survivors. However, those stories needed to be told, they needed to be heard, and they needed to be recorded.” The final report contains the truths of more than 2,300 family members, survivors, experts and traditional knowledge keepers that were shared over the two-year mandate of the inquiry.   There are 231 calls for justice in the final report: calls for justice that are directed at all Canadians and at every level of government, for First Nations through to the federal government – calls for justice that some feel will go unheard. Buller disagrees. “The act of acknowledging and recording the truths of victims' families, survivors and others raises awareness and that [in] its very nature instigates change: change that takes time, but change that has already begun. One of the lessons I have learned working in the justice system is that real change has to happen at the grassroots.”    We invited MMIWG Chief Commissioner Marion Buller to join us for a Conversation That Matters about the path forward in reducing harm and violence afflicting indigenous women, girls and Two-Spirited people.   Conversations That Matter is a partner program for the Morris J Wosk Centre for Dialogue at Simon Fraser University.

The colonial street name origins trace back to the city of Santa Barbara establishment in 1851 when the town council directed Captain Salisbury Haley make a survey and map the “town”. Thereupon the surveyed location of discovering a Chumash ancestor, in an act of violence, Captain Salisbury Haley named the street Indio Muerto. What is the symbolic meaning behind the street name “Dead Indian” and how does it connect to other colonial spaces that aggravate and perpetuate various manifestations of settler colonialism, racism, and historical trauma? After 28 years of Chumash activists demanding for the offensive street name to be changed, the Advisory Council to the Santana Barbara city council, unanimously voted 10-0 on August 10th, 2020 to change the offense street name to Hutash (Earth Mother).

With the recent Trump Administration's establishment of the Operation Lady Justice Task Force office opening in Billings, Montana and the same administration's failure along with several elected officials to even consider The Reduce, Return and Recover Act - a proposed bill the late US House Rep.

In fact, according to the report, “SBI has documented 165 MMIWG2 cases in California. This makes California the state with the fifth-highest number nationally, trailing behind Montana (237), Washington (235), New Mexico (188), and Arizona (188).

Todd Ross currently lives in Toronto. He served in the Canadian Navy from 1987 till 1990 when he was released for being gay. As a young sailor, he was investigated by the military police. The investigation lasted 18-months and when he finally admitted that he was gay, he was released with an honorable discharge. In 2016, he joined two other former soldiers to launch a lawsuit against the Canadian government and on November 28, 2017, the government of Canada settled the class action lawsuit. The settlement was on the same day Prime Minister Trudeau made the historic apology to LGBTQ2 people in Canada. As part of the settlement, a $25 million reconciliation and memorialization fund was established. Todd serves as the Vice-Chair of this fund. He is Métis and is the President of the Toronto and York Region Métis Council (The Métis are a distinct Indigenous people in Canada). We’ve all heard the old adage that “The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence.” For many in the LGBTQ community in the United States, the other side of the fence has been Canada. LGBTQ2 rights in Canada are some of the most advanced in the Americas and in the world. But is the grass really greener north of the border. Todd talks about life in Canada as a member of the LGBTQ community – the good, the bad, the real and lessons we can all learn from our neighbors to the north.

Ty Defoe is an Ojibwe and Oneida grammy award-winning performance artist, activist, and writer who identifies as Two-Spirit. In Native American cultures, not only is it acknowledged that gender is more fluid than our patriarchal binary society allows, but Two-Spirit individuals are also highly revered for their spiritual gifts. In this episode, Ty talks to us about the difficulty of being accepted as Two-Spirit, even within his own culture, as a result of colonialistic and religious brainwashing, whilst recalling the tender way his mother observed his body change with testosterone hormone therapy. Ty challenges the assumptions about classic literature (who is Shakespeare a classic for, anyway?), asks why hair should be an indicator of gender, and inspires us all to look more closely at the way we label ourselves and those around us. “People build fences and boxes and walls to keep the truth out.” “Examining self and examining what you're taught always stirs the pot a little bit...But I think that's what people who are making art, people who are two-spirit, who are queer, who are on the margins, are on the fray, I kind of feel like, that's the role, to make this revolution happen.”
