Heritage Voices

Heritage Voices, hosted by Jessica Yaquinto, explores the intersections of Indigenous heritage, archaeology, and cultural preservation. Each episode features conversations with Indigenous professionals, culture bearers, and allies working in heritage, language revitalization, tribal historic preservation, and collaborative archaeology. The show highlights Indigenous voices and perspectives in a field historically dominated by Western narratives. Whether you're a heritage professional, archaeologist, or simply passionate about inclusive storytelling, Heritage Voices offers meaningful insights into how Native communities are leading the way in preserving and interpreting their own histories.

Black Cemeteries - Ep 70

On today's episode, Jessica hosts a conversation with Dr. Antoinette Jackson and Delande Justinavil about Black cemeteries. We talk about their work and how their efforts fit into larger efforts to learn more about and protect Black cemeteries. We talk about the importance of using a variety of methods and disciplines to understand this important topic, as well as the necessity of including living people and art to inform this work and speak to the general public. The discussion includes the importance of reframing away from the idea of Black cemeteries as “abandoned” and the many layered efforts necessary to protect Black cemeteries holistically.

PROMO - Finding Our Religion with Dr. Candace Lukasik - The Dirt 208

The Archaeology Podcast Network is taking a bit of a break for October, 2022. In the mean time, we’re introducing you to some of the other fantastic shows that we produce. Here’s an episode from The Dirt Podcast about “Finding our Religion” with a guest anthropologist and ethnographer.

Candace is an anthropologist and ethnographer whose research focuses on the intersections of transnational migration, religion, race, and empire. We learned so much in this episode! It's always such a treat to have a guest with a perspective from one of the anthropological fields other than archaeology. We hope you enjoy it and we hope it gives you all lots to think about!
