Thank you and deep gratitude to the hosts/creators for this podcast as one of the most inspiring and revolutionary ones out there. The hosts are committed to collective liberation and all of that intentionality is reflected in the guest choices, topics, format, and content. Nick Estes and Melanie Yazzie are particularly skilled at storytelling, movement building, and what liberation can look like. The latest episode from on the ground in Minneapolis is awe-inspiring.
I literally just watched this film over the weekend and I’ll admit it was “entertaining” for a film…as an accurate representation of native sisters and brothers it evokes felling of black exploitation films- our faces but not our voices…our voice as a diverse people is hushed while stereotypes are amplified. Something never sat right with me about the film: why was JR the to go to and not the GG as the sworn officer of the law?; his daughter’s death was caused by a serial offender (s) yet no on... more
I wish I could give the podcast a -100. Nothing but anger and unintelligent dribble. I don’t understand how someone spews that much hate and continues to stay in America and live. Don’t waste your time.
I absolutely adore Melanie and Elena's anti-western movie idea (Sept 2025 Wind and the Reckoning)
I'll be happy to play a yt buffon (typecasting) and bring all my yt relatives to see it!
You are absolutely ready to write this!
I also love the alternation between RNP and RPH, and dire current struggles with deep-dive pop culture/film reviews
One of the most important things culturally is to demystify the Bible. It’s a book of fables.

A focus on Indigenous history, politics, and culture unfolds through thoughtful discussions and interviews that often connect these themes to larger socio-political issues. Through a leftist lens, various episodes explore pivotal subjects such as decolonization, cultural appropriation, Indigenous rights, and solidarity with global movements. Especially notable is the podcast's commitment to uplifting Indigenous voices and narratives, presenting a counter-narrative to mainstream media, while also addressing complex relationships with colonial institutions and ideologies. The emphasis on activism and personal stories enhances awareness of ongoing struggles against exploitation and injustice faced by Indigenous communities.
