  • A Life Woven Together Between Shepherd and Sheep

    A Life Woven Together Between Shepherd and Sheep
    Aug 11 2022

    In this interview with Jay and Nikyle Begay and Zefren Anderson, we learn about the long arc of relationship between the Dine and the Churro Sheep. Beyond the narratives promulgated by colonization about when this relationship began, we dive into a landscape of relationships held together by mutual care and exchange between shepherds and sheep. The wool from Churro is long, colorful and exists as the foundation for multiple artistic and deeply functional lifeways that are discussed in this powerful exchange.

  • Andean Pastoralist Livelihood Initiative

    Andean Pastoralist Livelihood Initiative
    Aug 4 2022

    Four thousand meters above the sea, Andean mountain communities have been living with alpaca for thousdands of years. Small flock shepherding is a long-held way of life, one that our guest, Mauricio Nunez Oporto, is working diligently to see flourish and sustain. He leads the Andean Pastoralist Livelihood Initiative, a multi-stakeholder project that lifts up the vision for life, family, and relationship that pastoralist communities (which produce fiber and food) are holding— and seek to continue well into the future.

    Reflections from an Industrial Ecologist
    Jul 28 2022

    In this interview with Roland Geyer, we discuss the history and the effects of the interplay of economic forces and environmentalism. We'll also touch on how sustainability has been defined in the last three decades coming out of the U.N. Earth Summit of 1992 in Rio, and what this means for our textile material culture, human labor and the climate today.
