Part 3

They called her “savage” and she was a tough, independent and widowed single mother, attempting to succeed during a time when women were just starting to have a voice (although many Native women were still very much unheard).

Join me in part 3 of this series with my guest, Nicolette Blount as she delves into the stories of her great grandmother, Wanda Savage, a 1920s Chickasaw sharpshooter, stunt woman, dancer and silent film actress!

And Nicolette has beautifully turned Wanda’s story into a show called, “Savage the Musical” and it’s gaining fast acclaim!

This is the story of survival, the universal desire to be accepted and a quest for redemption that you must hear!

In part 1 of this 4 part-series, step into the rich history, cultural heritage and stories of Alaska's Alutiiq tribe, with my guest, Scott Larionoff (Alutiiq).

There’s more to Alaska than just the breathtaking landscapes of the Last Frontier. In this episode, we’ll dive deeper, to learn about distant echoes – the stories – of the Alutiiq people of the past and those who are descendants of those who survived and are still here today.

Scott shares with us about his home of Kodiak Island (and of course, the Kodiak bear), the history of the Russian invasion and the Awa'uq Massacre, Alaskan history and more.

I know you’ll be moved by the stories of resilience, tradition, and enduring spirit, as we explore this remarkable indigenous community of the Alutiiq people.
