In Episode 40, I share an address that I gave at a Mi'kmaw Nationhood gathering in PEI. It is about Mi'kmaw sovereignty and nationhood and what it means for all our citizens. Whether we call it sovereignty, nationhood, peoplehood, self-determination or self-governance, Mi'kmaw nationhood refers to our strength and power as a collective with our own defined and defended territories. We need to identify current threats to our nationhood, but also need to identity the opportunities we have to strengthen our nationhood and revitalize it.Here is the link to my Youtube video about Mi'kmaw Nationhood:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCBeQq4nEeA&t=37sI also have several chapters in my book, Indigenous Nationhood: Empowering Grassroots Citizens, on various political, legal and economic threats to our sovereignty as Nations, which can be found here:https://amzn.to/2m0cyfYI've also written about the importance of native identity and belonging in my book: Beyond Blood: Rethinking Indigenous Identity, which can be found here:https://amzn.to/2mFSEHfTo stay up to date on my work, my website link is here:https://pampalmater.com/You can also follow me on Facebook as Pam Palmater Media, on LinkedIn as Pam Palmater, and on Twitter and Instagram as Pam_Palmater.My blog, Indigenous Nationhood can be found at this link:https://indigenousnationhood.blogspot.com/If you would like to help me keep my content independent, please consider supporting my work at Patreon:www.patreon.com/join/2144345If you would like more information about these issues, you can check out my website at:www.pampalmater.comNote: The information contained in this podcast is not legal, financial or medical advice, nor should it be relied on as such.
