EP #37: Two Things Can Be True at One Time

Published: Nov. 26, 2023, 9:31 p.m.

November is Native American Heritage Month and the time of

\n

year when we observe Thanksgiving, a holiday whose

\n

beginnings were predicated on acknowledging our blessings

\n

with gratefulness for a shared, bounteous meal between two

\n

very different cultures with two very different concepts of land

\n

ownership. At this moment in time, there are two majorly

\n

horrendous wars being waged in the world. Mama B. hopes

\n

listeners will realize some of the commonality of experiences

\n

between America\u2019s Native Americans and the participants in

\n

the current Israel-Hamas War. Her goal is for listeners to think

\n

about the intersectionality of political ideologies, religious

\n

beliefs and their mandates, and most of all. . . how land is

\n

central to human existence.
