In this episode we yarn with Dr Sheryl Lightfoot - an Anishinaabe woman, citizen of the Lake Superior Band of Ojibwe, enrolled at the Keweenaw Bay Community.
Dr Lightfoot talks about potential for the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples to inform a First Nations foreign policy. She also gives an insightful global perspective on the aftermath of Australia’s failed referendum on an Indigenous Voice to Parliament.
Dr Lightfoot is Chair and North American member on the UN Expert Mechanism on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (EMRIP).
