Episode 1
Lots of discussion lately on social media on the topic of "Shimanchu". We need to look at our identity and in how it is connected to our ancestral world view as indigenous people of Loochoo. Our ancestors, like other indigenous people, didnʻt have a word for being indigenous because they understood who they were and didnt have people question where they came from. When we begin to discuss and look at our true origins and what is connecte that makes us who we are we can revitalize our cultural identity with that connection to our ancestors and spiritual relationship tht is essential to who we are as indigenous children of Loochoo.
