Join Camaray and I as we chat about project Yáamay: An Anthology of Feminine Perspectives Across Indigenous California. We delve into the processes that were involved in the collecting the poetry that made up Yáamay. This was a fun and delightful interview, we laugh, share life stories, and discuss science. Pull up a chair and warm yourself with the Warm Embers.
