Episode 3
In this episode, we trace the quiet violence of erasure—how names, lands, and ancestral memory are stripped from the record, yet pulse beneath the surface. Ea, the word for “earth” in many Pacific tongues, becomes the symbol of what’s been silenced and what refuses to disappear. Dee Epperson walks us through the layers: colonial cartography, linguistic suppression, and the ritual of remembering. With cadence as resistance and voice as reclamation, this episode asks—what does it mean to erase the earth, and how do we speak it back into being?
