In this powerful opening to a four-part series, hosts Whitney McKinley and Katrina Gouett sit down with Dr. Taima Moeke-Pickering, Sheri Cecchetto, and Taryn Michel from Laurentian University’s School of Indigenous Relations to explore how artificial intelligence intersects with Indigenous law, land, and sovereignty. This conversation challenges listeners to rethink AI not as neutral, but as deeply tied to land, community, and responsibility. Through Indigenous teachings, legal frameworks, and personal stories, the guests offer pathways for ethical AI use in education—rooted in reciprocity, environmental justice, and the wisdom of seven generations. This episode is a call to educators to center Indigenous perspectives in shaping the future of technology.
Our Guests are:
Dr. Taima Moeke-Pickering Director & Professor, School of Indigenous Relations, Laurentian University
Sheri Cecchetto Field Coordinator & Sessional Instructor, School of Indigenous Relations, Laurentian University
Taryn Michel Juris Doctor & Lecturer, School of Indigenous Relations, Laurentian University
