Many of us became storytellers because we didn’t see ourselves in media, on television, or in podcasts. Rebecca Nagle, host of the This Land podcast from Crooked Media, explains how to translate stories to an audience that doesn’t share your experience or understanding or experience.
Rebecca Nagle is an award winning advocate and writer focused on advancing Native rights and ending violence against Native women. Rebecca is a citizen of Cherokee Nation and a two-spirit/queer woman. Her writing about Native representation and tribal sovereignty has been featured in the Washington Post, USA Today, Teen Vogue, the Huffington Post and more.
Hosted by Dessa, Werk It: The Podcast is the ICYMI version of the live event. Both the festival and the podcast are produced by WNYC Studios and are made possible by a grant from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting with additional support from the Annenberg Foundation. Event sponsors for Werk It 2019 include Luminary, Spotify, Spreaker, Acast, Himalaya, and the Women’s Foundation of California. You can find more information at werkitfestival.com
