In this episode I introduce some ideas about Indigeneity, and some of the meanings of Indigenous, in attempts to have a working definition of the concept since it is central to this podcast project. Additionally, I explore how it is a concept and term that is intertwined with the paradigm of modernity, a constructed reality that is recent in the depth of human history. This is just an introduction to exploring the ideas behind these words. *Warning: If you are listening to this episode while you're driving please be aware there were a couple of moments when ambulances were passing by and it can be heard in the background of the audio, just be aware of that. Thanks for listening.
