    Sacred Stage: Talks with Native Playwrights & Artists with Georgianna Valoyce-Sanchez on 'A Light To Do Shellwork By'
    Jun 27 2025
    Today on American Indian Airwaves, an in-depth interview with distinguished elder, storyteller, activist, cultural bearer, educator and more, Georgiana Valoyce-Sanchez on her recent book A Light to do Shellwork By,” Indigenous poetry, Chumash family history, sovereignty storytelling, memory holders, contemporary issues, and more. Listen to our guest share some of her poetry with listeners and more. According to Linda Hogan (Chickasaw Nation) “A Light To Do Shellwork By casts a luminous and rare spiritual history on the borders of one woman's belonging. Georgiana's poems hold light from the voice of ancestors and reveal her own place in the line of their history. Like her father, an exquisite carver, she uses her power with words to inscribe her own origins from Indigenous Ocean people as well as the desert nations who travel west in their song journey for salt. She sings a new passage, a shining connection of present with past and by the light of her words, this writer also delineates another truth of colonial history”. Guest: Georgiana Valoyce-Sanchez (Chumash and O’odham Nations), Storyteller, Elder, Grandmother, Community Organizer, former adjunct faculty at California State University, Long Beach, and more.

    Sacred Stage: Talks with Native Playwrights and Artist with Laura Shamas
    Jan 12 2025
    The interview with today’s guest, Laura Shamas (Chickasaw Nation) on her world premiere play Four Women in Red happened several days before the Los Angeles Fires (i.e., Palisades Fire, Eaton Fire, Kenneth Fire, and the Hurst Fire).

A revised performance schedule will be announced at a later date.” Four Women in Red is about four resilient Native American women searching for missing friends and relatives in the face of apathetic sheriffs and dwindling clues. Touching on variety if critically important issues such as MMIW, settler colonial violence, and this moving new play celebrates the power of community as the women seek answers against all odds.

  • The Zapatista Army of National Liberation (EZLN) 31st Anniversary Suspended: Cartel & State Violence Escalations in Chiapas

    The Zapatista Army of National Liberation (EZLN) 31st Anniversary Suspended: Cartel & State Violence Escalations in Chiapas
    Dec 31 2024
    Today on American Indian Airwaves, listeners will hear extensive update on why 31st Anniversary of the Beginning of the War Against Oblivion, the armed uprising of the Zapatista Army of National Liberation (EZLN) on January 1st, 1994, against the colonial state of Mexico and global capitalism, was placed on hold. On January 1st, 1994, the Mayan peoples’ traditional homelands were recovered after the 12-day armed uprising of the Zapatista Army of National Liberation (EZLN) against state violence and a legacy of settler colonial oppression. The EZLN’s actions are concrete evidence of how Zapatismo in Chiapas has improved the living conditions of the communities based on organization, autonomy, and self-determination. Tune in to hear about how the systemic and increased organized crime violence is having on Indigenous peoples throughout Chiapas, MX. Also, listeners will hear a recap of the major 2024 events for Indigenous peoples throughout the settler colonial state of Mexico such as the 50th anniversary of the important 1974 Indigenous Congress in Chiapas, convened by the late Bishop Samuel Ruiz, whose 100th birthday would have been in 2024. Moreover, hear about the 2024 elections such as with the MORENA party reelected by a landslide; and how Claudia Sheinbaum replaces AMLO, cementing MORENA monopoly on power and what that means for Indigenous and Mayan peoples. The MORENA party corruption means more extractive industry expansion, displacement of Indigenous peoples without free, prior, and informed consent, and the violent repression of Indigenous protests and resistance against megaprojects, plus more. Guest: • Richard Stahler-Sholk, a retired Professor of Political Science at Eastern Michigan University, and community activist involved with the School of Chiapas which is an organization of grassroots activists and communities working to support the autonomous, indigenous Zapatista communities of Chiapas, Mexico. Schools for Chiapas was created the mid-1990’s by individuals searching for ways to make the world a better place and working to create a world where all worlds fit.

What an eloquent accounting of the tragic invasion of Chumashia. Thank you, Marcus Lopez and Larry Smith, for your astute inclusion of the extensive research and library of John M. Anderson. I know I will need to listen to this a few times in order to understand it all, but I feel so grateful that you have devoted your program to this important history. Dr. Anderson is so easy-to-listen to, with his story-telling style of sharing his research. To have Marcus' collaboration is priceless. Thank you, Marge Blanc
