Just Sustainability, Episode 16B: Gabe Desrosiers – Revitalizing Indigenous languages and lifeways and the importance of families, communities, and treating folks as whole persons

In the second episode featuring Gabe Desrosiers, Gabe and I discuss how institutions of higher-education within the United States might better support language and cultural reclamation by appreciating the full personhood of students. We also talk about what it means to live in a good way from an Anishinaabe perspective.

Gabe Desrosiers is an award winning singer and dancer, he is a translator and a voiceover artist for the Aboriginal Peoples Television Network, and he runs the Anishinaabemowin immersion camp as well as teaches Anishinaabemowin and Indigenous song and dance at the University of Minnesota Morris.
