S05E05: Karissa Valencia — Crafting Authenticity
Karissa Valencia spent her youth travelling between the
bustling metropolis of San Diego and the peaceful Santa
Ynez Chumash Reservation. Growing up with a foot in both
of those worlds deeply affected both the stories Karissa
tells and how she tells them.
In our conversation with Karissa, she shares insights into
what it's like to craft stories for young children, the
process of "indigenizing" her award-winning
series Spirit Rangers, and how her native identity
and being a woman have shaped her storytelling.
