Tanya Mailelani Naehu is an educator, performer, artist, community organizer, and activist of Aloha 'Āina from the island of Moloka'i, Hawaiʻi. Stemming from a very diverse multi-racial genealogy, she is Boricua being of African, Taino and Spanish descent as well as Kanaka Maoli, Portuguese and Chinese. As co-founder of Ka Hale Hoaka, an online school of Hawaiian knowledge, her teachings are grounded in Indigenous philosophies and practices such as mo'olelo, ʻōlelo Hawai'i, hula and oli.

Ka Hale Hoaka's online curriculum has enabled Hawaiian schools to break away from a Eurocentric curriculum developed on the mainland and provide students of all ages with the ability to learn sciences, social studies, language arts, fine arts and more through an indigenous cultural lens.

Using the online learning platform Thinkific, Kumu Maile has been able to create an easy-to-use, interactive learning experience that's accessible to any person or school across Hawaiʻi and the world.

In the first segment, Tiokasin talks with Michaeleen Doucleff, PhD, author of the New York Times bestseller Hunt, Gather, Parent: What Ancient Cultures Can Teach Us About Raising Children (Simon and Schuster, 2021). The book describes a way of raising helpful and confident children, which moms and dads have turned to for millennia. It also explains how American families can incorporate this approach into their busy lives.

Michaeleen wrote the book after traveling to three continents with her 3-year-old daughter, Rosy. Maya, Inuit, and Hadzabe families showed her how to tame tantrums, motivate kids to be helpful, and build children's confidence and self-sufficiency.

Michaeleen is also a global health correspondent for NPR's Science Desk, where she reports about disease outbreaks and children's health. More about Michaeleen at michaeleendoucleff.com

In the second segment, William Iggiagruk Hensley (Iñupiaq) is the author of Fifty Miles from Tomorrow: A Memoir of Alaska and the Real People (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2009). It is a stirring memoir of his childhood among the Iñupiaq people in Alaska, his lifelong crusade, including a stint in Congress, to protect their culture and way of life.

William brilliantly portrays how the lessons he learned in childhood, battling the wilderness of Alaska without many basic necessities, helped him as an adult to battle the hardships of political corruption and deceit in order to preserve his heritage.

In 1971, after years of William's tireless lobbying, the U.S. conveyed 44 million acres and earmarked nearly $1 billion for use by Alaska Native peoples. This is the inspiring true story of one man's quest to preserve and defend his people's "Ilitqusiat" - or Native Spirit.

Tiokasin Ghosthorse's guest for the full hour is Alnoor Ladha. Alnoor's work focuses on the intersection of political organizing, systems thinking and narrative work. He was the co-founder and Executive Director of The Rules (TR), a global network of activists, organizers, designers, coders, researchers, writers and others focused on changing the rules that create inequality, poverty and climate change.

TR started in 2012 as a time-bound project and an experiment in anarchist organizational design, exploring new ways of how to work, play and make trouble together. Alnoor comes from a Sufi lineage and explores/writes about the intersection between politics and spirituality in troubled times.

"This is not about saving the world. Even the idea of saving the world is such a hubristic, western thought. The world doesn't need saving. It's we who need saving. It's we who need redemption. And that possibility only exists if we're willing to humble ourselves to the emergence of what could be." - Alnoor Ladha

"There is a reason why the Six Nations-Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) were not invited to Rome to meet the pope and secure an apology for the victims of the residential schools. We don't want an apology, we want justice," writes residential school survivor Doug George-Kanentiio (Akwesasne Mohawk) in a column that was widely published in April. Tiokasin and Doug discuss the recent papal apology.

Doug was born and raised at the Mohawk Territory of Akwesasne. Doug George-Kanentiio was born and raised at the Mohawk Territory of Akwesasne. He attended school on and near the reservation before enrolling at Syracuse University and then the Antioch School of Law.

Doug was a co-founder of the Native American Journalists Association before serving the Mohawk Nation as editor of the journals Akwesasne Notes and Indian Time. He worked with the late Vine Deloria, Jr., on the Traditional Knowledge conferences before joining the Board of Trustees for the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian.

Doug is vice-president for the Hiawatha Institute for Indigenous Knowledge, a non-profit higher learning facility that is based on Iroquois principles. He resides on Oneida Iroquois Territory. Read Doug's column: https://bit.ly/39KA5dm

The second half-hour, Tiokasin discusses Native elder abuse with CC Hovie, Communications Manager at StrongHearts Native Helpline. Domestic abuse can look similar in elder relationships as it does in their younger counterparts, but some elders may be more vulnerable to the impacts of abuse and less able to get support. CC Hovie is Anishinaabe Ojibwe from the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Indians.

In her job, CC develops and oversees all StrongHearts' communications and media efforts to support the organization's mission, vision and goals. Prior to working at StrongHearts, CC was the Program Coordinator for the Grand Traverse County Senior Center Network in Michigan.

CC is experienced in public relations, media appearances, and marketing strategies. She volunteered as the Marketing Director for several non-profits and helped them create brand identity by leveraging her skills in electronic and print media. In 2002, CC began working in the domestic violence prevention field at the Advocacy Resource Center for the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians.

She attended Lake Superior State University and Ferris State University with a concentration on Business Management. For more information about StrongHearts Native Helpline, visit strongheartshelpline.org.

Edgardo Krebs was born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He studied social anthropology at the University of Oxford in England. Edgardo's main topic of interest is the history of anthropology in Argentina. He did fieldwork among the Tatsimo of southern Madagascar, and in Tierra del Fuego, following the diaries of Sir Baldwin Spencer. He conducted several research trips to the Gran Chaco.

Harpers Magazine, The Washington Post, and The Times Literary Supplement have published his work, which has also appeared in several scholarly journals and books. Edgardo's book on the first film adaptation of Richard Wright's 1950 film Native Son, which was shot in Buenos Aires with Wright himself playing the lead role, appeared in Spanish. Edgardo was the executive producer of the film's restoration. Edgardo is now working on the biography of Alfred Métraux, one of the pioneers of Gran Chaco ethnography.

Edgardo is a Research Associate at the Department of Anthropology, National Museum of Natural History at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. Tiokasin and Edgardo discuss "Landmark Napalpí Massacre trial begins in Argentina, 98 years after Indigenous Killings," an article that was published in The Buenos Aires Times on April 20, 2022. The article opens with this sentence: "Almost 100 years after police officers and settlers in Argentina mowed down hundreds of Indigenous people protesting living and working conditions on cotton plantations, a landmark trial has opened in Chaco Province to finally secure some form of accountability."

Tiokasin welcomes Dr. Tink Tinker back to "First Voices Radio" this week. Dr. Tinker is the Clifford Baldridge Emeritus Professor of American Indian Cultures and Religious Traditions at Iliff School of Theology in Denver, Colorado. He is a citizen of the Osage Nation (wazhazhe) and has been an activist in urban American Indian communities for four decades. He joined the faculty at Iliff School of Theology in 1985 and brought an American Indian perspective to this predominantly euro-christian school.

Dr. Tinker is committed to a scholarly endeavor that takes seriously both the liberation of Indian peoples from their historic oppression as colonized communities and the liberation of euro-christian (White) Americans, the historic colonizers and oppressors of Indian peoples, whose self-narrative typically avoids naming the violence committed against Indians in favor of a romance narrative that justifies their euro-christian occupancy of Indian lands.

Dr. Tinker is the author of American Indian Liberation: A Theology of Sovereignty (Orbis Press, 2008); and is author or editor of several other volumes; and has written nearly a hundred journal articles and chapters for edited volumes. He has served on the Leadership Council of the American Indian Movement of Colorado and was active in the 30-year project to rid Colorado of its state proclaimed columbus day holiday, which was finally successful in April 2020.
