Co-host Jacqueline Keeler talks about the Country Fair totem pole controversy and her recent trip to the UN in New York
The Oregon Country Fair honors Native American concerns about the fake Totem Pole and we talk to Haida tribal member Wendy Ireland, who is from a family of carvers, about what it’s like to get colonizers to stop appropriating. Do they really understand that traditions are not just “art”? And host Jacqueline Keeler talks about her recent travels to the UN and her keynote “American is Still a Colony and the Reemergence of Native Nations: How Standing Rock Made the Military Occupation of Native Nations Visible.”
