TEK (Traditional Ecological Knowledge / Indigenous Ecological Knowledge) with Frank Lake

Indigenous people have lived in the place now known as California since time immemorial and are still here today. In this episode, join me and Frank Lake as we discuss mutualistic relationships between Indigenous Californians and the land, traditional burning, oak orchards, the powerful ways Indigenous and Western knowledges can come together, common misconceptions about pre-colonial California, reciprocity, and how we can move from a mental model of scarcity to cultivating a shared abundance that leaves no one behind.  Links: Frank Lake California Indian History Curriculum Sue-Meg State Park Slavery in California Lightning safety tips My website is goldenstatenaturalist.com Support GSN on Patreon Follow me on Instagram
