We are joined by Ḵasheechtlaa Louise Brady to talk about the path that led to sobriety and work with protecting the invaluable and threatened herring run to Southeast Alaska. Yaaw (herring) produce a vital food source to the Lingít peoples, and are an indicator species for ecosystem balance within the interconnected worlds of living things in the ocean. Ḵasheechtlaa tells a story about reconnecting to the self and to her Indigenous culture, and how the healing from those reconnections are carried out in her advocacy and stewardship as part of Native Movement (www.nativemovement.org) and the Herring Protectors (www.herringprotectors.org). She also guides us through a conversation on gender balance and equity within Indigenous cultures, and how a rematriation movement can result in increased care for the clan houses of the Lingít and increased ability to protect our lands for the benefit of future generations.
