Listen "Encore: The Ramblings of a Lakota Anthropologist on American Indians and Anthropology and Tribal Relations - Ep 75"
Episode Synopsis
The Archaeology Podcast Network is taking a break for the holiday season. In the meantime, please enjoy this encore episode. It’s a favorite of ours! Happy holidays!On today’s episode, Jessica hosts Dr. Richard Meyers (Oglala Lakota), Tribal Relations Specialist at the Black Hills National Forest and the former Director of Graduate Studies and Associate Professor at Oglala Lakota College. Richie joined as part of the panel on Episode 73: Exploring the Ethics in Experimental Archaeology and I knew we needed to have him back to do a one on one episode. We talk about various aspects of identity, as well as the challenges and benefits of working in a variety of types of positions across the field of Anthropology, academia, and federal service. Richie also talks about his current work as a Tribal Relations Specialist and provides important advice for anyone wanting to go into Tribal Relations specifically, but really any form of Anthropology more generally.Links Heritage Voices on the APN Who Gets To Be An Indian | Richie Meyers | TEDxBrookings Native Anthropology, to be a Native Scholar, or a Scholar that is Native: Reviving Ethnography in Indian Country What Rez Dogs Mean to the LakotaContact [email protected]@livingheritageA@LivingHeritageResearchCouncilArchPodNet APN Website: https://www.archpodnet.com APN on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/archpodnet APN on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/archpodnet APN on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/archpodnet Tee Public StoreAffiliates Motion Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
