Summary
Today's show celebrates Earth Day. For all of us on Mother Earth, every day should be Earth Day. Indeed, for those of us who have indigenous ancestry, every day on earth is Earth Day, as we are more or less in continual intimate contact with the natural world around us. I say “more or less” in continual contact because the reality of life and a world turned upside down by colonial history is that indigenous people have been repeatedly displaced and relocated. Like many of our natural kin: the winged ones, the rooted ones, the four legged, we often struggle to maintain nurturing connections with the earth. That struggle is the theme of today's show.
