Listen Later

Hey y'all! For our 1st private podcast of the year, we reflect on history and our ancestors to reckon with today's world. We share a reflection from the Roadtrippin for Change series. Become a Seedling Member

On the 5th day of our roadtrip, Bear and I finally get settled at a campsite with time to reflect and chill. On the drive, I was able to reflect on the U.S. and how we were back in Trump's America. I speak to my own ancestral history and how it intersects with the larger story of the United State and settler colonialism. Don't worry, it's not all heavy, we also hear from the chipmunks who have alot to say about landback and a "dinosaur bumble bee." This was originally recorded on July 14, 2025 as part of our ongoing Road Trippin' for Change series.
