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!

Decolonize Sports with Davy Tiger-Cortes

Ha.We Relatives!
This week on the pod, I’m joined by Davy Tiger Cortes, co-founder of Decolonize Sports. An Indigenous-led sports media platform amplifying Native athletes, with a deep focus on lacrosse, also known as The Creator’s Game by the Haudenosaunee.
Alongside his cousin Brandon and brother Dominic, Davy has helped build a space where interviews, photography, production, and play-by-play are for us and by us -with Native athletes and coaches offering commentary straight from the sidelines, before and after the game.
When he’s not shooting lacrosse, Davy works in film and TV production here in NYC, experience that’s clearly shaped the way Decolonize Sports is telling our stories with intention and skill.
Decolonize Sports is a much-needed voice in the sports world-because every press pass is representation, both in front of the camera and behind it.
