Ep. 191: Why Indians aren't tripping over Trump's 'Indian Country' tweet

from MEDIA INDIGENA : Indigenous current affairs

If you're active on Twitter maybe you've seen it—the fuss some have kicked up over Donald Trump's recent use of the phrase "Indian Country" in a tweet. But look carefully among those the most fussed: what you won't find are many, if any, "Indians." On this week's Indigenous roundtable, we climb into this cross-cultural chasm of criticism, and discuss why even those ever-vigilant #NativeTwitter types feel there's way bigger fish to fry. Joining host/producer Rick Harp for the final show of the decade are Candis Callison, Associate Professor at UBC's Graduate School of Journalism, and Kim TallBear, University of Alberta associate professor of Native Studies. // CREDITS: 'nesting' by birocratic (opening/closing theme); 'Ukulele Song,' by Rafael Krux (orchestralis.net)
