Our aim is to celebrate and amplify those who don't always see themselves reflected in the "Great Outdoors": Black, Indigenous and People of Color, people with disabilities, LGBTQIA+ folk and others redefining the outdoor narrative.

    UNTANGLING: Protecting water and Indigenous sovereignty with Autumn Harry

    As the daughter of Indigenous water rights advocates, Autumn Harry (@numu_wanderer) was able to establish a connection to water and fishing at a very young age. Since then, she's used her skills and knowledge to educate others on the history of Kooyooe Pa'a, or Pyramid Lake, as the first Numu Woman Flyfishing Guide in the U.S (@kooyooepaa_guides). She's also led advocacy work and mutual aid efforts for food and land sovereignty to help her community, the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe, thrive. Untangling is a three-part Outside Voices mini-series exploring our cultural connections to fishing, created in partnership with our friends at Take Me Fishing.  Resources: - Website of the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe - Information about Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) from Native Women's Wilderness - Pyramid Lake Fishing Guide: Be a Respectful Visitor by Autumn Harry Hosted and produced by Sarah Shimazaki Co-produced by Neecole Bostick Sound edited by Jeff Alvarez Album artwork by Ezra Manjarrez A production of Resource Media, with support from Pisces Foundation Follow us on Instagram: @OutsideVoicesPodcast Please support our podcast by leaving us a review: RateThisPodcast.com/outsidevoices

    UNTANGLING: Familial fishing lines with Brianne Lauro

    A descendant of Filipino plantation workers who immigrated to Hawai'i in the early 1900s, Brianne Lauro (@brianne_lauro) is the daughter, granddaughter, and great-granddaughter of local fishers and hunters. In this second episode of "Untangling," Brianne opens up for the first time about imposter syndrome and credits all she's learned as a fisher to her Uncle Lance. While Brianne herself is relatively new to fishing, she's learned that it's become a way to connect with her family history, build and take care of her community, and share culture and knowledge across generations. Untangling is a three-part Outside Voices mini-series exploring our cultural connections to fishing, created in partnership with our friends at Take Me Fishing.  Hosted and produced by Sarah Shimazaki Co-produced by Aly Ferguson Sound edited by Jeff Alvarez Album artwork by Ezra Manjarrez A production of Resource Media, with support from Pisces Foundation Follow us on Instagram: @OutsideVoicesPodcast Please support our podcast by leaving us a review: RateThisPodcast.com/outsidevoices

    UNTANGLING: Gwine Fishin with Queen Quet and the Gullah/Geechee Nation

    For the Gullah/Geechee people, fishing is culture. Everything comes back to "making a circle", shares Queen Quet, chieftess and head-of-state of the Gullah/Geechee Nation, from throwing a circular cast net out into the ocean, to bringing balance and harmony back to the natural environment, and passing down cultural traditions to the next generation. Tune in for a conversation between Host and Producer Sarah Shimazaki and Queen Quet! The Gullah/Geechee Nation encompasses over 100 sea islands along the Atlantic coast and about 30 miles inland. The Gullah/Geechee are descendants of enslaved people from West Africa and have largely been able to preserve their traditions, including fishing, which they depend on for their livelihood. October 22nd marks the Gullah/Geechee Seafood Festival. Bring family and friends to enjoy the Gullah/Geechee presentations, cuisine, and crafts along the shoreline at the Hunting Island Nature Center! Untangling is a three-part Outside Voices mini-series exploring our cultural connections to fishing, created in partnership with our friends at Take Me Fishing.  Hosted and produced by Sarah Shimazaki Sound edited by Jeff Alvarez Album artwork by Ezra Manjarrez A production of Resource Media, with support from Pisces Foundation Follow us on Instagram: @OutsideVoicesPodcast Please support our podcast by leaving us a review: RateThisPodcast.com/outsidevoices
