Welcome to Episode 14 of See the Change Podcast. This is Part 2 of our conversation with filmmaker and activist Morgan Tsetta.
In this episode, Morgan talks about going viral on TikTok with her Giant Mine videos, tells us about the women who inspire her, and reflects on the balance of Indigenous causes and Indigenous joy in film.  
Morgan Tsetta is a Yellowknives Dene First Nation filmmaker and photographer, currently living on unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Watuth Nations, colonially referred to as Vancouver, Canada. With a passion for film, photography, and her Native culture, Morgan is committed to emphasizing the voices of Dene people, and the power of self-representation for Indigenous sovereignty.
