Thanks to Joel Haberstock for introducing us to this week's guest!In this episode of Climate Action Figures, John interviews Apooyak'ii, Dr. Tiffany Hind Bull Prete, a member of the Blood Tribe from the Blackfoot Confederacy. Apooyak'ii discusses the importance of land, traditional ecological knowledge, and the natural law of balance from a Blackfoot perspective. She shares insights on how non-Indigenous people can learn from Indigenous knowledge systems to better care for the Earth. The conversation also covers the significance of reconciliation, the role of Indigenous languages, and practical steps individuals can take for climate action. Resources like the Kainai Ecosystem Protection Association and the work of environmental activist William Singer III are highlighted as valuable learning tools.00:00 Introduction 00:48 QuickFix: Alberta Parks' Recycled Outhouse01:43 Welcome Apooyak'ii: Connection to the Land02:24 Blackfoot Traditional Territory and Stewardship04:24 Learning from Indigenous Knowledge05:43 Practices for Sustainable Living08:15 Challenges and Paradigm Shifts09:14 Resources and Community Initiatives13:13 Role of Allies in Reconciliation15:54 Truth and Reconciliation: Caring for the Earth18:10 Indigenous Education and Two-Eyed Seeing21:50 Revitalizing Indigenous Languages26:08 Personal Climate Actions and Hope for the Future27:56 Conclusion and Farewellhttps://www.naapisgardenkepa.com/, https://www.instagram.com/naapis_garden/[email protected]://www.facebook.com/climateactionfigureshttps://www.instagram.com/climateactionfigures/https://www.youtube.com/@ClimateActionFigures
