Episode 36: Episode 1 – Interview with Leora Tadgerson: Healing Native Hearts


Listen Later

Sarah has been working with Leora Tadgerson for months on a national Episcopal committee working to tell the truth and repair the harms of church-led boarding schools. In this episode, we talk with Leora about her work as chair of the MW062 Executive Council Committee for Indigenous Boarding Schools and Advocacy.

Leora is a proud dual citizen of Gnoozhikaaning, Bay Mills and Wiikwemkong First Nations. She serves as Director of Reparations and Justice with the Episcopal Diocese of Northern Michigan. Leora’s role focuses on truth-telling, racial equity through restorative justice, reconciliation research from the Native American boarding school era, and place-based community work and bridge building as a tribal liaison. Her research involves the Michigan-based Indian boarding school experience and the Episcopal-run schools. Through Leora’s research, she hopes to aid in the healing of Native hearts. In her spare time, she can be found with her partner, Tye and four boys, Quinn, Shiloh, Evan and Jack.
