For this week's show, we're digging into the First Voices Radio archive and revisiting a conversation between Tiokasin’s and elder Albert Marshall, from the Moose Clan of the Mi'kmaw Nation. He lives in the community of Eskasoni in Unama’ki – Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. Albert is a fluent speaker of the Mi'kmaw language, a passionate advocate of cross-cultural understandings and healing and of our human responsibilities to care for all creatures and our Earth Mother. He is the spouse of Murdena Marshall, the father of six children, the grandfather or great grandfather for many more, and a friend to thousands. In 2009, Albert along with his wife Murdena were conferred the degree Doctor of Letters honoris causa by Cape Breton University for their tireless efforts to help promote cross-cultural understandings, reconciliation, and healing. Albert is a founding member of the Elder’s Lodge for the Conservation through Reconciliation Partnership hosted by the IISAAK OLOM Foundation, the Indigenous Leadership Initiative, and the University of Guelph in Ontario, Canada.

This week’s edition is about “story” and how storytelling reconnects us to our histories, cultures and homelands, and in Host Tiokasin Ghosthorse’s words is “nourishment and good medicine.” Tiokasin speaks with Kevin Abourezk. Kevin is featured in the seventh season of “Stories from the Stage,” a WORLD-original series that highlights stories told by ordinary people from all walks of life. This season includes seven Native Americans. Kevin tells a story about his involvement in an activist event to oppose a huge housing development in Lincoln, Nebraska in April-May 2021, and efforts to rally the community around it. Kevin is an award-winning journalist, film producer and community organizer. He is deputy managing editor of Indian Country Today and was a reporter and editor for the Lincoln Journal Star for 18 years. A member of the Rosebud Sioux Tribe, Kevin has spent his career documenting the lives, accomplishments and tragedies of Native American people. He holds a bachelor's degree in English from the University of South Dakota and a master's in journalism from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. The “On Scared Ground” episode featuring Kevin’s story airs on Monday, October 23 at 9:30 pm Eastern Time. Two other stories are featured: artist Colleen New Holy (Oglala Lakota) talks about the judgment heaped on traditional healing through stories of her mother, noted activist and educator Reneé Sans Souci, and her work as an educator preserving Native culture, and Valery Killscrow Copeland (Oglala Lakota) tells a story about her encounter with Bigfoot. “Stories from the Stage” can be seen on WORLD, YouTube, worldchannel.org and the PBS App. Individual stories and exclusive digital content can also be seen on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and on the WORLD YouTube Channel.

Binnie Klein hosts “A Miniature World,” a music and interview show at WPKN 89.5 FM in Bridgeport, CT. WPKN streams at wpkn.org. (WPKN is the former “home” of “First Voices Radio” and a longtime, treasured affiliate). Binnie maintains a private practice in psychotherapy in New Haven, CT, and has been a Lecturer in the Department of Psychiatry at Yale University. She also is an author and publishes in many publications. Binnie’s latest creative project is an indie music collaboration, “In These Trees and Tartie.” While sorting through submissions for her radio show, Binnie was particularly captivated by an Australian singer-songwriter who performs as Tartie (Natasha Anderson). Tartie, based in Melbourne, is known for her “dream-pop” sensibility. Continents apart, separated by time zones and a pandemic, Tartie and Binnie began to explore collaborative possibilities. Tartie’s musical take on Binnie’s lyrics of memory, loss, betrayal, and ultimate liberation was just the right fit. The two women share a passion for nature and survival of the planet. “Ablaze” is the most recent release for “In These Trees and Tartie,” a poignant protest against our heartless treatment of the earth, particularly resonant in these times of increasingly destructive environmental events. Jennifer Kreisberg (Tuscarora) from Ulali provides back-up vocals. Host Tiokasin Ghosthorse says: “Once in a while I am compelled after hearing a song about how we forget about out impact on Earth with our rational justifications of making our world, our civilization better by ignoring the natural balance, and continue in our narcissistic ideas often because we as humans caused the tragedies we lament in song. These songs need to be medicine songs, healing songs, ancient tried and true songs not looking for popularity but for respecting the place Earth has in heart for humanity.” Production Credits: Tiokasin Ghosthorse (Lakota), Host and Executive Producer Liz Hill (Red Lake Ojibwe), Producer Karen Ramirez (Mayan), Studio Engineer, Radio Kingston Tiokasin Ghosthorse, Audio Editor Kevin Richardson, Podcast Editor Music Selections: 1.

“First Voices Radio” digs deep into our 30-year-old archive. The words of the late John Trudell are from 1980 but his observations have stood the test of time and still ring true. John (1946-2015) was a poet, a fighter for Native American rights, an agitator, and many other things. But if you were to have asked him which of these descriptions best suits him he would have refused to be pinned down. “Actually I don’t consider myself to be any of those things. They’re things that I do…but they’re parts of me. They’re not the total.” Indeed, Trudell was the complex sum of all that he saw, endured and accomplished during his 69 years, a time when he experienced more than most people might in several lifetimes. More information about John Trudell can be found at https://www.johntrudell.com/.

Tiokasin is joined by two guests for the full hour. Hataałiinez Wheeler is a very modern kind of crooner: a pensive, deep-voiced troubadour whose serene surf-country songs tap into the hope and despondency of a new generation. The music he makes as Hataałii — a Navajo term that means “to sing,” a fitting diminutive of his given name — is at turns witty and world-weary, sunny but endearingly solipsistic. Albert Haskie is a software developer from the Navajo Nation. He is the creator of the app Adoone’é. Serving as the lead developer in the project, Albert has strived to uphold his culture and traditions as a Navajo/Diné. It is his deep-rooted belief that everyone should have access to the resources that preserve and celebrate their Navajo/Diné heritage. Albert finds great joy in tackling Navajo/Diné language and culture preservation in the 21st century. With Adoone’é he aims to contribute to his community and empower others to do the same. Albert says that “Together, we can foster a world where Navajo/Diné individuals can achieve fluency in the Navajo/Diné language.” Read.
