An Indigenous Ally is a platform to raise Indigenous voices and a safe space for curiosity and learning. Kaitlyn has been working on being an ally since starting her education in Indigenous arts and culture in 2015, and most recently assisted in the curation of Empowering Art: Indigenous Creativity and Activism from North America’s Northwest Coast. You can find more content on Instragram and Tiktok @anindigenousally.
In this episode I talk to Anishinaabe language carrier and poet Jon Taylor. We met on TikTok through his wonderful videos teaching people words and songs in his language. Join us as we discuss poetry, teaching, music and medicine.

Episode 2 - In Conversation with Sonny Assu
Hi everyone! This is my first interview episode and I'm really excited to share it with you all! Sonny Assu is a Ligwiłda’xw artist of the Kwakwaka'wakw Nations based in ƛam̓atax̌ʷ (Campbell River, B.C.). I've known Sonny for many years now, and he's a good friend of mine. It was nice to catch up and explore what he's up to at the moment, everything from gaming and his recent trip to Santa Fe, to political issues of the now and discussing his potential next trip to the UK.
