This episode kicks off our first series on history. In this episode Lindsay and Brit talk with Dr. Michelle Johnson-Jennings (Choctaw) about history, traditional roles important to southeastern & Choctaw people, roles today that are of importance, the role and importance of traditional tattoo practitioners in our communities, and so much more!
We want to give a shout out and yakoke lawa hoke (many thanks!) to all the folks who bought the 'Knit Together' merch through our last bonfire campaign. Upon the date this podcast episode is released (Sept 25, 2021), we will be starting two new bonfire merch campaigns: 'Knit Together' and the Inchunwa design by Cherokee artist Keli Gonzalez. Purchase of merch from the first bonfire campaign OR these two new ones will get you access to the full interview of Dr. Michelle Johnson-Jennings where she discusses Yappali - the project that Inchunwa has been largely influenced by - as well as gender, revitalization of clan systems, importance of community based research, traditional stories, and more! It's an awesome interview and you'll defiantly want to give it a listen! Note that these campaigns run for 21 days. If you purchase merch through these campaigns, please message us on our Instagram or Facebook accounts with a screen shot of your receipt and your email address and we'll get you access to the full interview. Money made from these campaigns will be going towards helping to support this podcast as well as fundraising for the next phase of our larger project: getting southeastern apprentices traditionally trained up to tattoo. Every little bit helps - so again we say Yakoke lawa hoke!
