Episode 65 - Call Me By My Name

Episode 65 - Call Me By My Name

What’s the power of a name? Today’s episode explores the impact of the names colonial powers gave to various indigenous groups around the world and the ripple effects still felt today. All of the examples came from different experiences I had recently, and I noticed a common thread worth exploring. Join me as I talk about the Maya, the Maori, and the Tupi and how these names we know them by today were influenced by the colonial powers that sought to erase them. Who controls the narrative greatly impacts how we treat each other, and that’s a lesson that is evergreen.
