    Voices of Sovereignty Podcast Series: Episode 3

    Through insightful conversations, compelling stories, and thoughtful analysis, the Voices of Sovereignty podcast aims to shed light on the importance of First Nations Data Sovereignty and inspire collective action towards a future where First Nation peoples have full control over their data, their narratives, and their destiny. In episode 3 of this podcast series, we will be speaking to Dr. Maggie Walter from the University of Tasmania, joining us to talk about REAL mijidootjik. Mijidootgik is an Anishnaabemowin word that means a person who knowingly commits wrongs. In studies involving First Nations communities, researchers can be REAL mijidootgik as a result of racism (R), a lack of proper engagement (E), approval, accountability (A), and leadership (L). In our conversation with Maggie, we will expand on how REAL mijidootgik in research results in lasting harm for First Nations communities, and how to conduct REAL research; that is, research that acknowledges and works against systemic racism, properly engages First Nations communities, is based on approval and accountability, and grounded in First Nations leadership, governance and control.
