A podcast to amplify indigenous voices while building powerful connections through conversations, culture and community. For far too long, indigenous people have been targeted, silenced, and made nearly invisible by the societies that surround us. The values that maintained balance of our shared land and communities are old, valuable, and deeply needed in our world today. During our time together we will explore many topics through storytelling, laughter and sometimes tears. Come along on this journey where together we will feel the power of relationships and experience healing that comes with centering Wabanaki culture. Each month, and often more, we will share an episode with our guests to offer good medicine to all who join. Woliwon (Thank you)!

    Aunties on Air Episode 56: Healing Through Laughter with Janelle Niles

    Episode 56: Healing Through Laughter with Janelle Niles Laughter has always held a sacred place in our communities. It connects us, heals us, and speaks truths that words alone cannot reach. Today, on Aunties on Air, we sit down with trailblazing comedian Janelle Niles, creator of the all-indigenous variety show Got Land? Comedy. We explore the intersections of identity, the power of taking up space on stage, and how reclaiming our narrative through humor can be a beautiful tool for healing.  Wabanaki Words Used: Apc-oc (again in the future, parting, good-bye, farewell) - https://pmportal.org/dictionary/apc-oc   Topics Discussed:   Janelle Niles - https://www.gotlandcomedy.com/comedians/janelleniles  Got Land?

    Aunties on Air Episode 54: Weaving, Healing and Resilience with Jeremy Frey

    Episode 54: Weaving, Healing and Resilience with Jeremy Frey For generations, our ancestors have woven our stories, our history, and our relationship to the land into the physical fibers of the earth. In a world that often tries to compartmentalize Indigenous art as a relic of the past, our artists are proving that our traditions are living, breathing, and contemporary. Today, we are joined by world-renowned Wabanaki basket maker Jeremy Frey. We dive into how the simple, sacred act of weaving serves as a powerful vessel for personal recovery, cultural preservation, and sovereign expression in the face of rapid ecological change.  Wabanaki Words Used: Apc-oc (again in the future, parting, good-bye, farewell) - https://pmportal.org/dictionary/apc-oc   Topics Discussed:   Jeremy Frey - https://jeremyfreybaskets.com/  Jeremy Frey’s Exhibit at Standford University - https://museum.stanford.edu/exhibitions/jeremy-frey-woven-0  Standford University - https://www.stanford.edu/  Emerald Ash Borer - https://www.invasivespeciesinfo.gov/terrestrial/invertebrates/emerald-ash-borer  Santa Fe Indian Market - https://www.swaia.org/  Dawnland Festival - https://www.abbemuseum.org/dawnland-festival  “Woven” by Jeremy Frey - https://www.amazon.com/dp/0847899705?lv=shuf&channelId=500&plpRedirect=mhFallback  Portland Museum of Art - https://www.portlandmuseum.org/  Ramey Mize - https://www.portlandmuseum.org/magazine/ramey-mize/  Jeremy Frey at Portland Museum of Art show - https://www.portlandmuseum.org/exhibitions/jeremy-frey-woven/  Jeremy Frey, at Art Institute of Chicago - https://www.artic.edu/exhibitions/10212/jeremy-frey-woven  Jeremy Frey at The Met 2023 - https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/905840  Jeremy Frey at The Met 2024 - https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/909323  McArthur Genius Grant - https://www.macfound.org/fellows/class-of-2025/jeremy-frey  Ann Mitchell - https://www.dreamweaverbasketry.net/  Akwesasne - https://akwesasne.travel/  Caleb Hoffman - https://www.instagram.com/chbaskets/  Gabriel Frey - https://www.gabrielfrey.com/  Sylvia Gabriel - https://www.abbemuseum.org/blog/2011/03/gabriel-women-family-tradition.html    Wabanaki Tribal Nations: Houlton Band of Maliseet Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians | Littleton, ME (maliseets.net) Mi’kmaq Mi'kmaq Nation | Presque Isle, ME (micmac-nsn.gov) Passamaquoddy Tribe Indian Township Passamaquoddy Tribe @ Indian Township | Peskotomuhkati Motahkomikuk Passamaquoddy Tribe Sipayik Sipayik Tribal Government – Sipayik (wabanaki.com) Penobscot Nation Penobscot Nation | Departments & Info | Indian Island, Maine   Special Thanks/Woliwon:  Guest: Jeremy Frey Producer: Gavin Allen Podcast Team: Macy Downs

About

A podcast to amplify indigenous voices while building powerful connections through conversations, culture and community. For far too long, indigenous people have been targeted, silenced, and made nearly invisible by the societies that surround us. The values that maintained balance of our shared land and communities are old, valuable, and deeply needed in our world today. During our time together we will explore many topics through storytelling, laughter and sometimes tears. Come along on this journey where together we will feel the power of relationships and experience healing that comes with centering Wabanaki culture. Each month, and often more, we will share an episode with our guests to offer good medicine to all who join. Woliwon (Thank you)!
