Episode 30 - Youth Dreaming and Designing Relations to Lands and Waters
In this episode, youth researchers (ages 14 to 18) and graduate facilitators from the afterschool land education program, Youth Dreaming and Designing Relations to Lands and Waters, reflect on climate justice and Land relations, focusing on the impacts of colonization, urbanization, and gentrification on both human and more-than-human beings. Through rants, poems, and stories, they challenge anthropocentrism, express desires for more reciprocal relations with Land and water in the city, and envision just climate futures for their communities. This episode was originally recorded in the summer of 2024. We’d like to thank and celebrate the Afro-Indigenous, Black, and Indigenous youth researchers for their contributions to the land education program and podcast: Aadehwiin, Alyssia, Joanna, Judah, Lucas, Sterling, and Waeys. Thank you to the researchers in the Tkaronto CIRCLE Lab who co-designed and co-facilitated the program, under the supervision of Dr. Eve Tuck and Dr. Fikile Nxumalo: JP Craig, Jade Nixon, Nicole Franklin, Milen Negash, Kaitlin Rizarri, and Jo Billows. Thank you to Tiffany Hill for editing and mixing the recordings. Our intro and outro song is brought to us by North Vancouver’s Tunuqsun. This song, Long Road Ahead, was produced, written, performed and brought to life within his personal studio alongside co-producer MideBeatz. Find Tunuqsun on all streaming and social media platforms.
