S1E4 - Episode 4: Restorative Justice

2 years ago

This episode of Our Grandparents Teachings explores the concept of Restorative Justice. We hear our host, Daanax.ils’eik (Chuck Miller), share his experiences with Peacemaking Ceremonies and the importance of the Guwakaan (deer). He will share some archived recordings of peacemaking songs from the 1970s and then we will hear from local artist and restorative justice facilitator, Cayla Pook. Cayla shares her experiences with restorative justice in her work here in Sitka and how her practices were influenced by learning from her elders. Gunalcheesh!
