Story-telling / Story-listening

Story-telling / Story-listening podcast explores multiple Indigenous and cultural epistemologies (worldviews, sciences, pedagogies, cosmology). It documents a practice of recording oral stories/teachings as a method of preparation for climate change (changes to land, water, living beings and inter-relationships). The host, Jessica Hum (譚德娟) aims to build relationships of mutual respect and reciprocity, producing a series of podcasts which serve as a boundary object. As a 3rd generation Chinese/Ojibway woman, this research represents a step in the direction of her own personal decolonization.
