  • Summary

  • In this episode, Candace is joined by special guest Alycia Two Bears, member of the Mistawasis Nêhiyawak First Nation, who's a passionate educator and advocate for 2SLGBTQ+ people and author of the book "Two Spirit Stories, Sex, and the Ceremony Behind it All."

    These two fierce women explore the link between misogyny and the issue of missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, and Two Spirit people (MMIWGT2S+).

    As National Day for Awareness of MMIWGT2S+ (aka Red Dress Day) approaches on May 5, they delve into the subtle forms of misogyny, such as the hyper-sexualizing the Native aunties, that contribute to violence against MMIWGT2S+ individuals.

    They highlight how this can lead to internalized self-hatred among young women, girls, and femmes. The conversation also covers the prevalence of transphobia in traditional settings and the critical need to establish safe environments for everyone.
