We're Still Here with Simon and Julie

This week on "We're Still Here", Simon and Julie join John to talk about the 149th anniversary of the Battle of Little Bighorn—not as Custer’s Last Stand, but as a rare Native victory against invasion, where Lakota, Cheyenne, and Arapaho warriors defended their homelands and won. They also dig into the Trump administration’s latest move to strip protections from 58 million acres of national forest -- land that includes sacred sites, ancestral territories, and climate-critical ecosystems. Plus, Julie shares thoughts from her latest Substack, Tobacco Is a Sacred Medicine—a reflection on ceremony, colonization, and reclaiming Indigenous relationships with plants and power. They received some fantastic calls from listeners who reminded us why it's important to have these conversations.
