Let's Have a Powwow
LHAP is centered around the Urban Indigenous experience in NYC. We will talk about guests Homelands and How and Why they came to the big city. We will also cover culture and fashion as it is a big part of the Podcast Hosts' life. Being a fat, brown woman working in Fashion for over 20 years I've heard it all! Let's Have a Powwow is inspired by those cringe moments we've had in professional settings where someone has suggested "having a powwow" to discuss work stuff. We are reclaiming the word! So join in and enjoy indigenous excellence. Don't worry, everyone is invited, we will also feature some of my favorite Allies!

Relative Arts w/ Korina Emmerich and Liana Shewey Pt.1
Welcome back! On this episode I speak with Korina Emmerich and Liana Shewey, The founders of New York City’s Relative Arts. Relative arts is a Brick and mortar store located in the East Village. With over 50 artists and designers to choose from, The store is THE go-to for Indigenous made goods. Relative arts is so much more than a store. It is beautiful example of a Peer-run community space. Korina and Liana convert their showroom to accommodate viewing parties, musical performances, poetry readings and so much more. They are Pillars in our NYC Community. These deadly aunties are fascinating and fun to talk to. We just vibed and chatted for hours lol. So this episode will be in 2 parts! Please enjoy listening to your Relatives in NYC.
Tune in Next week! We continue our conversation with the RA Gworls and we spice things up and answer our first question from a listener. If you would like to leave a question you can text the show directly on the podcast page. See you soon cuzzins
