So Interesting!
A well done podcast in which interesting native women are interviewed. Great variety and wonderful sound production. Host Jeans Burgess asks insightful questions with just the right amount of her own story mixed in. Highly recommend!
Ground-Breaking but Upholding Colonialism?
It’s nice to here the voices of Indigenous women on the show. It does feel as though many of the voices speaking are speaking to a colonialist narrative. Hearing a woman talking about being a missionary to tribes is neo-colonialism through Christianity. They also talk about blood quantum which is weird. I understand that many of them are white-passing and probably feel that’s how they can prove their indigenous roots, but actions speak louder than words. Maybe talking to more people who are working to decolonize by learning and preserving language, diet, and life ways would actually help folks really get in touch with their indigenous bloodlines. There are many artists, chefs, authors, etc doing the work. Go find them and bring them on.
Fascinating
This podcast is fascinating. So much history linking to the here and now. I’m intrigued by the women’s stories Jeane shares with us in Bloodlines. Being born and raised in Oklahoma, I love learning more about our history.
