We're Still Here with Simon and Julie

We're Still Here with Simon and Julie

Julie and Simon join John to unpack the ICE raids in L.A.—why they’re not just an immigration issue but an Indigenous one. They dig into the disturbing forced removal of Senator Alex Padilla from a Kristi Noem event and what it says about power, race, and who gets silenced. They also break down the White House’s budget cuts to Tribal colleges, while the Yurok Tribe makes history reclaiming over 47,000 acres of stolen land. Plus, Julie shares the story behind her latest Substack essay and her online run-in with “Three Grumpy Bastards.” Spoiler: it’s a classic case of deflection when Indigenous folks speak hard truths.
