In this episode, Dani discusses language, both their personal journey with languages and how language shapes our worldviews.

They recommend “Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge, and the Teachings of Plants” by Robin Wall Kimmerer for some learning on the Potawatomi language and worldview. Also, GenderReveal episode 72 with Vico Ortiz to learn about the ungendering of the Spanish language.

Lastly, Dani recommends the Indigenous Action post titled, “Tending Sacred Fires: Make Colonizers Afraid Again - Part 3” for some beauty on anti-colonial antagonistic approaches to the far-right and liberals’ perspectives on power.
