Dr. Kim TallBear, Professor of Native Studies, author, and regular international media commentor on issues related to Indigenous peoples, science, sexualities, and non-monogamy joins us again for her second episode on Open Deeply. In this episode, she gives us a preview of her upcoming book tentatively called, “Disrupting Sex and Nature” that will discuss non-monogamy and eco-sexuality along with how both sex and nature have been controlled and managed by science, religious thinkers, and the state.” A few other fascinating topics include a discussion on indigenous kinksters, indigenous feminists, and the medicine people who lead plant medicine journeys. Dr. TallBear also explains the emotional impact of intergenerational colonial chaos on indigenous people along with how native people are taking their power back. If you have ever wanted to learn more about North American indigenous social justice efforts and the struggles they have faced, this is the episode for you.
