Thanksgiving is often celebrated with gratitude and togetherness, but the story most of us know is rooted in myth and erasure. Recorded live at the new Tidelands Gallery, this episode flips the script and reimagines the holiday through an Indigenous lens.Valerie Segrest (Muckleshoot), a nutritionist and food sovereignty advocate, kicks off the episode by sharing real and practical ways to reframe our Thanksgiving table. She offers a preview of her upcoming show, The Old Growth Table, a project we’re proud to be working on at Tidelands, focused on ancestral foodways and Indigenous connections to the land.Matika Wilbur (Swinomish & Tulalip) follows with a powerful exploration of the Thanksgiving myths we’ve been taught, unpacking the holiday’s colonial legacy and offering a bold vision for how we can ground it in truth, healing, and Indigenous resilience.From reclaiming our food traditions to rewriting the narrative, this episode invites us to rethink what it means to gather, give thanks, and set the table for a better future.Let’s reimagine Thanksgiving together, Relatives.Text us your thoughts!Support the showFollow us on Instagram @amrpodcast, or support our work on Patreon.
