Aunties on Air...and some Uncles too

  • Relationships
  • Updated Biweekly

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)!

    REPLAY: Thanks to Our Animals: Honoring the Sacred Gifts of Mother Earth Join us in re-listening to this special episode with John Neptune and Andrea Sockabasin! This episode originally aired last fall and centered around talking about all things sustenance. Aunties on Air wanted to highlight that whether you are a hunter, medicine collector or vegetarian, we believe that you would hear stories that would warm your heart as we entered in to a new, cooler season. We wanted to also remind our listeners of that fact that Wabanaki people have lived in harmony with Mother Earth and all of her gifts for thousands of years and we wished to share these stories of harmony.

    Episode 52: MMIW: Indigenous Sovereignty and Healing with Lyla June Our ancestors understood that the health of the land is directly tied to the safety and sacredness of our women and relatives. In a system built on extraction, both our earth, our sisters and our relatives have faced deep violence. Today, we are continuing our focus on the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) crisis by welcoming Lyla June Johnston to our studio. This conversation explores how reclaiming our traditional food systems, land sovereignty, and ancestral wisdom serves as the greatest protective shield and path toward collective healing.

    Aunties on Air Episode 51: MMIW: Healing Through Taking Space

    Episode 51: MMIW: Healing Through Taking Space In Wabanaki territory and across Turtle Island, our women, girls and two-spirit relatives are the heart of our nations. They carry our stories, our languages, and our future. Yet, the painful reality of the MMIW crisis continues to affect our families and communities deeply. This week, we welcome back a very familiar voice and longtime advocate to the studio, our former Aunties co-host, Lauren Stevens. Together, the Aunties sit down with Lauren for a deeply necessary conversation about grief, resilience, and reclaiming our narrative. We dive into the profound medicine of speaking our stolen relations' names out loud, ensuring they are never made invisible by the systems around us. Lauren shares how utilizing the Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) network provides critical, proactive support to keep our people whole and protect our collective spirit before crisis even begins. This is an episode about taking up space, raising our voices, and anchoring ourselves in cultural traditions. True healing happens when we center our Wabanaki values, look out for one another, and refuse to be silenced.  Wabanaki Words Used: Apc-oc (again in the future, parting, good-bye, farewell) - https://pmportal.org/dictionary/apc-oc   Topics Discussed:   MMIW - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_and_Murdered_Indigenous_Women Salt Bay Chamberfest - https://saltbaychamberfest.org/ Dawn Avery - https://www.dawnavery.com/ Wilhelmina Smith - https://www.wilhelminasmith.com/ We Are Water - https://portlandovations.org/event/we-are-water-a-northeast-celebration/ Yo-Yo Ma - https://www.yo-yoma.com/ Rodger Paul - https://umaine.edu/nativeamericanprograms/people/rogerpaul/ Chris Newell - https://www.nefa.org/chris-newell Mali Obomsawin - https://www.maliobomsawin.com/ Jeremy Dutcher - https://jeremydutcher.com/ Andri Magnason - https://andrimagnason.com/ MMIW Poem by Feather Mason-Delorme - https://poetryinvoice.ca/write/monthly-poem-prize/winning-poems/mmiw-poem UNITY - https://unityinc.org/   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: Lauren Stevens  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)!
