Ayana Omilade Flewellen - HeVo 102
After more than 4 years since they recorded Episode 60 (Historical Archaeology for the Future) together, Jessica checks back in with Dr. Ayana Omilade Flewellen (they/she; Assistant Professor in the Department of Anthropology at Stanford University and Co-Founder of the Society of Black Archaeologists). The two discuss Dr. Flewellen’s move to Stanford, how Dr. Flewellen’s research focus was entirely flipped on its head, and how they came back from that in a creative way. We also discuss the importance of standardizing excavation for future use as legacy collections. Finally, we discussed the oral history work that they are doing with Diving with a Purpose and even as a cultural anthropologist their methodology was one I had never heard of before!

Chance Ward FINALLY - HeVo 101
After being part of two panel episodes (Heritage Voices Episode 79: The Intensive NAGPRA Summer Training and Education Program (INSTEP) and Episode 92: The 2024 Updated NAGPRA Regulations, Jessica finally got to sit down with Chance Ward (NAGPRA Collections Specialist at History Colorado; enrolled citizen and tribal member of the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe) for a one on one episode. During this episode we talk about how Chance first heard about anthropology during his time at Fort Lewis College, his time doing CRM work, and why he chose to switch to Museum Studies. We talked about a couple of projects that are near to his heart, including a workbook for Indigenous young people on CRM, how it affects Tribes, and why it is important to be involved and a couple of papers on the ethical treatment of animal remains. Lastly we talked about his approach in his current position and his advice for how other museum professionals can better work with Tribal Nations.

Bolivar Archaeological Project, Part Two - HeVo 100
This Heritage Voices episode features Ms. Betty Kimble and Mr. Howard Clark from Denton, Texas. In Episode 99 with Dr. Maria Franklin, Dr. Alex Menaker, and Doug Boyd, we started talking about the Bolivar Archaeological Project and the excavation of Mr. Tom Cook’s blacksmith shop. For the 100th episode of the Heritage Voices podcast (!), Jessica chats with Ms. Betty Kimble and Mr. Howard Clark who are direct descendants of Mr. Tom Cook. We talk about what it was like learning more about their family history through this project, seeing the artifacts from their ancestor found during the archaeology study, participating in and conducting oral history interviews, and how they have been sharing with the community about this important history. Their family story highlights so many different eras of American history. On that front, we were particularly lucky to have Ms. Betty Kimble share her work in the 1960s working with other mothers on desegregation through the Denton’s Women’s Interracial Fellowship.

Bolivar Archaeological Project, Part One - HeVo 99
This Heritage Voices episode features Dr. Maria Franklin (University of Texas at Austin), Dr. Alex Menaker (Stantec, Inc.), and Doug Boyd (Stantec, Inc.) and is part one of a two part series on the Bolivar Archaeological Project, a collaborative community archaeology project sponsored by the Texas Department of Transportation. In this episode they provide context for the Bolivar Archaeological Project including the Ransom and Sarah Williams Farmstead project that paved the way for this study. Next, they broke down the different components of the project: Historic research, archaeology, oral history, and community engagement. They described how the different disciplines informed each other and how the lineal descendants and descendant community heavily influenced and contributed to the project throughout. Finally, this episode closes out with a discussion of the archaeology findings, as well as the archaeology of blacksmithing in general. Stay tuned for episode 100 with Mr. Tom Cook’s lineal descendants (who have provided invaluable service to their community in their own right as well), Ms. Betty Kimble and Mr. Howard Clark.

Nunalleq Digital Museum - HeVo 98
For this episode of Heritage Voices, Jessica Yaquinto speaks with Charlotta Hillerdal (University of Aberdeen), Jaqueline Nalikutaar Cleveland (Native Village of Kwinhagak), Lonny Alaskuk Strunk (Native Village of Kwinhagak), and Alice Watterson (University of Iceland). The team explains how climate change was causing artifacts to erode out on the shoreline, so the Native Village of Quinhagak (Kwinhagak) requested an archaeological excavation so that their heritage would be documented. They describe how what would happen to those artifacts and how to educate the community and larger public about their heritage remained a constant concern and area of discussion. The team described the process of creating this public education resource and how they conveyed the sense of place and focused on incorporating the language into the digital exhibit.

Seeing the Hozhó in Anthropology - HeVo 94
On today’s episode, Jessica chats with Kendrick McCabe (Ethnographer and Cultural Resource Specialist at Parametrix). Kendrick talks about switching from studying Engineering to Anthropology at the University of Alaska after connecting with Alaska Native classmates. This experience led to an interest in Indigenous naming and identity. Later he continued this work by looking at how people express and shape their culture through the lens of social media. Finally, we talk about his ethnographic and cultural resource work at Parametrix, from working with a local Diné community on a historic uranium mine to working on the Navajo Gallup Water Supply Project, as well as on the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee. Kendrick peppers in lots of good advice for anyone doing Tribal Consultation, Ethnographic, or Cultural Resources work with Indigenous communities!

Working with Tribes as a Non-Anthropologist - HeVo 93
On today’s episode, Jessica chats with Maia Poston (They/Them; Tribal Liaison and Manager of Project Support for InContext). Maia talks about growing up at archaeology sites, their thesis on Manifest Destiny, Liminality, and Neil Gaiman’s American Gods, and eventually finding their way to NAGPRA work. For anyone new to NAGPRA or working with Tribes, they give lots of useful tips on how to approach the soft skills of that work, considerations to think about, and how to reframe your approach. They round out the conversation by talking about how Incontext, as a CRM company, wants to change the way they work with Tribes and be part of the process of breaking down barriers between the CRM world and Tribes.

The 2024 Updated NAGPRA Regulations - HeVo 92
On today’s episode, Jessica chats with Krystiana Krupa (NAGPRA Program Officer for the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign), Blythe Morrison (Collections Manager at BLM Canyons of the Ancients Visitor Center and Museum and a citizen of the Blackfeet Nation), Jayne-Leigh Thomas (Director of the NAGPRA Office at Indiana University), and Chance Ward (NAGPRA Coordinator for History Colorado; Lakota [Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe]). The panel talks about the 2024 regulation changes to the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), including Federal Collection Reporting, Inventory Resubmission Deadlines, and Duty of Care. The discussion spends extra time with Duty of Care’s three main components: a) museums must consult with tribes on how to care for a collection b) deference to tribal knowledge c) access, research, and exhibition is prohibited without consent. The panelists also discuss how they’ve been applying the new regulations and what’s been successful for them, as well as main challenges that they are experienced or heard. Finally, the episode gets into the main questions each panelist has received, how they answer those, and what resources they refer people to (see below!). If you have a question for this panel, send them to jessica@livingheritageanthropology.org and if Jessica receives enough questions, the panel has agreed to do a follow up episode to answer them.

Rapa Nui - HeVo 91
On today’s episode, Jessica talks with Friar Francisco Nahoe and Mata'u Rapu about how a priest and a filmmaker got involved in repatriation efforts for Rapa Nui (Easter Island). We learn how 19th and 20th Century European sheepherding ventures circulated Polynesian crania from Rapa Nui across the world; how UNESCO recognition can harm indigenous communities; the close relationship between environmental protection, cultural heritage, and indigenous rights; and most of all how the Rapanui people themselves provide an outstanding example of resilience in the face of environmental precarity and Euro-American colonization. Finally, we explore the challenges of living up to the leadership and legacy of both ancient ancestors and living elders in the effort to find a collective, multi-generational Polynesian voice.

The Tohono O’odham Nation and Kitt Peak National Observatory: Building Relationships and Creating Resources - HeVo 90
On today’s episode, Jessica talks with Dr. Jacelle Ramon-Sauberan (Tohono O'odham Nation Education Development Liaison at Kitt Peak National Observatory; Tohono O’odham from Wa:k Ceksan [the San Xavier District]) about her work fostering relationships between the Tohono O'odham Nation and Kitt Peak National Observatory through tours for Tribal Departments, programs, and schools, serving as a point of contact for tribal members and the Nation as a whole, sharing Tohono O’odham history and culture with general public visitors, and continuing to build on the promises made during the original agreements to lease the land from the Tohono O'odham Nation. Additionally, Dr. Ramon-Sauberan (or Dr. J.) works with the larger Astronomy community on how to be a good neighbor to Indigenous communities. Throughout Dr. J’s career, her focus has always been on providing resources and serving Indigenous communities, from journalism that focused on Indigenous people making a difference in the world to developing her dissertation that centered community voices as a resource on land and water rights in Wa:k Ceksan (the San Xavier District).

Tamamta (all of us): Transforming Western and Indigenous Sciences together - HeVo 89
On today’s episode, Jessica talks with Dr. Jessica Black (Gwich’in; Associate Vice Chancellor and Associate Professor in the College of Indigenous Studies at the University of Alaska Fairbanks) and Dr. Courtney Carothers (Professor of Fisheries in the College of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences at the University of Alaska Fairbanks). Dr. Black and Dr. Carothers discuss their work, alongside student colleagues and Alaska Native peoples, to highlight Indigenous fisheries knowledge, Indigenous fisheries science and governance practices, and the structural inequities that keep Indigenous peoples in Alaska from their deep traditional cultural practices, livelihoods, and relations. All of this deeply relational work lead to the birth of Tamamta (a Yup’ik and Sugpiaq word meaning 'all of us'), an organization focused on connecting Indigenous and Western sciences and supporting graduate students deeply connected with Indigenous communities in Alaska on research around fisheries.

Sámi Land Protection - HeVo 88
On today’s episode, Jessica talks with Tuula Sharma Vassvik (Sámi activist, land protector, musician, podcast host, and freelance contractor in Heritage and Indigenous Methodologies) about their journey through archaeology to Indigenous methodologies and land protection in Sápmi. Tuula’s work focuses on solidarity across cultures and class, as well as community building and future building within Indigenous ways of life. We talk about their time at Standing Rock and how that shaped not only their Masters thesis, but their life trajectory. We also discuss their involvement in protests against wind turbines on reindeer herding areas, the destructive impact of farmed salmon on the coast and coastal Sámi people, as well as topics they have explored with their podcast guests, including Indigenizing queerness. Today’s takeaway: Don’t buy farmed salmon from Norway!

Nuxawiš: unwilling to give up - HeVo 87
On today’s episode, Jessica talks with Maura Sullivan (PhD student in Linguistics at Tulane University; Irish-American, Chumash and Mexican heritage, and an enrolled member of the Coastal Band of the Chumash Nation). Maura gives Jessica a crash course in many different language topics such as the difference between language work and linguistics, what is a minoritized language, and how you can revive a language in ways other than with fluent speakers (such as the Breath of Life program). She emphasizes the need for structural changes to support language work, but also some ways that we can all be better relatives and give back on an individual level. Maura also described varying creative methods to support language work, including how she incorporates her art, provides intra-community language materials, as well as making the Šmuwič language more visible where appropriate.

Relational Engagement with Indigenous Communities through the Heritage Lands Collective - HeVo 86
On today’s episode, Jessica goes more in depth with Joseph Gazing Wolf (Executive Director, Heritage Lands Collective [formerly Living Heritage Research Council]; Lakota, Nubian, and Amazigh) from Episode 84 on the Boulder Ethnographic-Education Project. On this episode, Joseph talks about how his childhood in Egypt and on the Standing Rock reservation inspired his interest in land, heritage, traditional ways of life, and working with elders. He talks more about his work with his buffalo relatives and how that led him to academia. He discusses how the settler-colonial context of academia is harmful to Indigenous scholars and how people in academic settings can engage with Indigenous communities in a relationally respectful manner. Finally, we conclude by talking about the work Heritage Lands Collective is doing and where Joseph would like to take it in the future, including Indigenous youth internships and youth-elder camps.
