Rage is Sacred: Awake at 27

In this episode of Real Native Roots: Untold Stories, Vickie sits down with Ameerah Suina Thomas, a 27-year-old Afro-Indigenous woman of Laguna Pueblo and West African descent whose voice carries both clarity and fire.

Together, they explore what it means to be fully present in your body, how culture lives through everyday practices, and why food, music, language, and movement are not just traditions—they are medicine.

Ameerah shares how her mother and Pueblo upbringing shaped her humility and strength, while her father instilled voice, joy, and the courage to live fully. She speaks honestly about navigating identity, solidarity, capitalism, and the emotional weight of being awake in today’s world.

This episode dives into somatic healing, the sacredness of rage, and the importance of returning to the body in a time that constantly pulls us into the mind.

Through laughter, reflection, and truth-telling, this conversation reminds us:

You are not separate from the land—you are part of it.

Your body holds wisdom.

Your presence is medicine.

And most importantly…You are needed.

This is an episode for anyone seeking grounding, clarity, and a deeper connection to themselves, their community, and the world around them.
