What is the role of language in shaping our worldviews and webs of relations — beyond simply serving as tools of communication? How can the revitalization of Indigenous languages “disrupt the glue for colonial thinking”? And what does it mean to navigate tensions around cultural change and cultural continuity?
In this episode, Green Dreamer’s Kaméa Chayne speaks with Anton Treuer, an Ojibwe author, professor, and public speaker dedicated to Indigenous language revitalization, education, and cultural understanding.
Join us as we explore collective healing through working with land-based languages, deepening dialogue between the oppressor and the oppressed, and more.
