The Winter Solstice Begins a Season of Storytelling and Ceremony

In the Northern Hemisphere, the December solstice is the year’s day of least sunlight, when the sun takes its lowest, shortest path across the sky. North of the Arctic Circle, it is the midpoint of the period of darkness, when even twilight doesn’t reach the horizon.

2020 Was The Year Of Protest Music

In 2020, there were many ways to understand the year in music; this week, we’re considering four. One of the most striking ways we’ll remember the music of 2020 – a year of serious social reckoning, especially during the resurgence of Black Lives Matter protests in the wake of the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis in May – was by the sounds of protest.

In ‘Huge Victory for Polar Bears and Our Climate,’ Court Rejects Trump Approval of Offshore Drilling Project in Arctic

Climate action advocates and wildlife defenders celebrated Monday after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit rejected the Trump administration’s approval of Liberty, a proposed offshore oil-drilling project in federal Arctic waters that opponents warned would endanger local communities, animals, and the environment.

How Standing Rock solved my 2016, First World problems

2016 was a rough year. After Nov. 8, it became almost unlivable. In my case, a sustained state of anxiety and depression erupted occasionally into nausea and panic. Behaviors buried since the Bush era made their reappearance, and I even did some brand-new things, like physically threaten someone who called me a faggot.

After 250 years, Native American tribe regains ownership of Big Sur ancestral lands

(CNN) – A northern California Indian tribe’s sacred land is now back under their ownership, thanks to the help of a conservancy group. The Esselen Tribe, one of the state’s smallest and least well known tribes, inhabited the Santa Lucia Mountains and the Big Sur coast for thousands of years, according to their website.

“It is with great honor that our tribe has been called by our Ancestors to become stewards of these sacred indigenous lands once again,” Tom Little Bear Nason, Tribal Chairman of the ETMC, said in a statement in October.
“The old-growth redwoods on this property are genetically adaptive to the warmer dry climate of Big Sur,” Doroff said. “These trees will be important for the future effort to assist in redwood survival.”
The Little Sur River runs along one side of the property with a tributary jutting onto the land, which is a spawning ground for the South-Central California Coast Steelhead, said the WRC. Both these species are in dire need of conservation. The condor is listed as endangered and the steelhead as threaten on the Endangered Species Act.

Hello There

Welcome to the only European radio show (AFAIK) to promote the indigenous made music of North America/Turtle Island.
I’m a one man operation and I do this because I really love the music and also to raise awareness of the environmental and social issues faced by the indigenous communities of Turtle Island.

At present the show goes out weekly on Resonance FM in London (UK) and Radio Freequenns (Austria) and a bi-monthly on Radio Agora (Austria). The show is given freely to non-commercial stations or those part of the European Free Radio network.
It is also Podcast every Friday as
Tunes from Turtle Island.

If you like what I’m doing a please consider giving a small donation to help me continue.  Buy Me a Coffee.  More about me 🙂
