In Part 2 of the Thesis Series, we examine how institutional harm often shows up—not through overt discrimination, but through silence, shifting expectations, and assumed support that never fully materializes. This episode names the structures that place quiet, ongoing pressure on Indigenous scholars: unclear guidance, uneven power, emotional labor disguised as professionalism, and the expectation to endure harm without disruption.

This episode sets the foundation for what comes next: turning survival into creation when institutions fail to hold us.
