While Indigenous is a solutions podcast, devoted to building Indigenous power.

Here, we'll talk to Indigenous thought-leaders, movers, and shakers, from rural communities on reservations, to urban areas. We’ll be hearing from people who are fighting for social justice, defending Indigenous rights, human rights, and the environment, people who are developing their communities with innovative ideas, and people who are making deliberate efforts to heal their spirits and decolonize their minds, their daily habits, their homes, and their communities.

Join us for our first episodes, launching October 8, 2018, on Indigenous Peoples Day.
