We're Still Here with Simon and Julie

We're Still Here with Simon and Julie

In this episode, Simon and Julie sit down with John to talk about the murder of Jonathan Joss, a two-spirit Indigenous actor who was shot and killed on his own property. They say he deserved better. This wasn’t just homophobia—it was also about race, and ignoring that - erases part of what made him a target. They also dig into the Department of Education calling New York’s Native mascot ban “discriminatory.” At the same time, the military is renaming ships that honored brave people like Harvey Milk and Dolores Huerta—while racist mascots are somehow still on the table. And they close with Leonard Peltier’s call to change the “American Indian Movement” to the “Indigenous Movement,” and what that shift could mean for first peoples.
