   Echoes of Einstein | Blackfoot Interpretations of Gravitational Waves | Corey Gray

   In this fascinating episode of the Nôhcimihk podcast, we sit down with Corey Gray, a Scottish and Blackfoot physicist from the Siksika Nation. Corey shares his unique journey from growing up in southern California to becoming a key figure in the ground-breaking LIGO project, which made historic strides in gravitational wave detection. Alongside discussing his scientific endeavors, Corey delves into the significant role his culture plays in his life and work, including his efforts, alongside his mother, to weave Blackfoot knowledge and language into the fabric of the scientific discovery at LIGO. Join us as Corey explores the intersections of identity, culture, and science, and shares his passions—from interpreting science to kayaking with his hand-built wooden kayak and his love for his brilliant mother. This episode is a deep dive into how our backgrounds can shape our careers in unexpected and enriching ways.

   The Aunty of Antarctica | Danii Kehler

   Episode 3 | The Aunty of Antarctica with Danii Kehler In episode number three, we are joined by the Aunty of Antarctica, Danii Kehler. As we navigate the systemic barriers Indigenous and marginalized people face, Danii teaches us the importance art and culture play in her story. Danii shares her experience growing up an urban native, rooted in culture and ceremony through her kohkum's (grandmother's) teachings, to venturing to a continent where few have explored. This is just the tip of the iceberg! (I couldn't not tell this joke, c'mon) Danii Kehler is a Plains Cree woman from the Kawacatoose First Nation on Treaty 4 territory and is a recent graduate from the Edwards School of Business in Business Management. In the Fall of 2024, Danii will be entering the School of Environment and Sustainability at the University of Saskatchewan to complete a Master's in Energy Security. She is an Indigenous artist focused on the resiliency of Indigenous people healing from intergenerational trauma by deconstructing colonial structures and reclaiming an Indigenous narrative. Danii shares stories through her art by showcasing the true beauty and meaning of Indigenous culture and people. Danii is the Manager of SevenGen Energy, an Indigenous Youth Council tackling climate change by empowering and equipping Indigenous youth. She is also the “first” First Nations person from Canada to be a participant of the 2041 ClimateForce Antarctic Expedition becoming an Ambassador for the Antarctic, charged with making a stand in the fight against anthropogenic climate change. Danii is now a part of the team that is working to see protection and justice for Antarctica! Find her art on IG!
