Episode 1: The Little Brown Igorot

This is a podcast about the uncomfortable pasts and precarious presents of the indigenous peoples. The Little Brown Podcast is about head-takers, white burdens, and expensive g-strings. This is not THE Igorot experience. This is OUR Igorot experience. 

Each week, we will be talking about an issue that affects Indigenous Peoples and how these issues fit in the global landscape whether it be about food culture, land rights, or dating. We hope to have special guests each episode so we can cultivate organic discussions/conversations and provide as many seats at the table as we can.
