The Indigenous Podcast: Unblocked: An indigenous podcast on race, risk, and resilience in South Florida
These podcasts are a key component in the Local-to-Global element of the project given the multiple ways Indigenous communities have been routinely rendered invisible and/or strategically positioned as disposable peoples The podcasts will showcase alternative narratives of how Indigenous peoples can use new technologies to shape discourses about their own lived realities, how they define risk and resilience for themselves, and how they are responding to and challenging dominant frameworks and interpretations. The podcast network will be led by Dr Mitzi Carter along with a team of students and staff. These podcasts are slated to live in the fall of 2024.
