Episode Synopsis
What does it mean to truly become a good relative — to land, to community, to ancestors, and to the future?In this episode, we sit down with Hilary Giovale, author of Becoming a Good Relative: Calling White Settlers toward Truth, Healing, and Repair. Hilary is a mother, writer, community organizer, and ninth-generation American settler based in Flagstaff, Arizona. As an active reparationist, she follows Indigenous and Black leadership in support of human rights, environmental justice, and equitable futures.We explore the inner and outer work of decolonization, the role of dreams and ceremony in healing ancestral harm, and how wealth can be transformed through what Hilary calls “philanthropic alchemy.” This conversation is an invitation — to reckon with history, to feel deeply, and to repair what has been broken.Whether you're just starting this journey or looking to deepen your practice, Hilary offers stories, frameworks, and hope for walking a different path.Guide to Making a Personal Reparations PlanWebpage with links to indie booksellers100% of book proceeds are going to Decolonizing Wealth Project and Jubilee Justice
