Salish Harvest Wild Idea's Podcast - Conversation With Deblekha Guin

Описание: ~ Welcome to the Salish Harvest, Wild Idea's Podcast! ~
A Celebration of Wild Wisdom in the Salish Sea Bioregion
.
Today's conversation is with Deblekha Guin, executive director & founder of AMES (Access to Media Education Society)
.
Deblekha Guin, raised in Six Nations territory (Southern Ontario), has been an uninvited settler on the unsurrendered territories of the Penelakut, Lamulchi, and other Hul’quim’in’um speaking Nations for the past 27 years. Shortly after arriving on what is colonially known as ‘Galiano Island’, Guin got swept up by a merry band of creative misfits determined to start a film school in the woods. After a few years with the Gulf Islands Film and Television School (GIFTS), and just before completing her MA in Communications from SFU, Deblekha founded the Access to Media Education Society (AMES). Since the birth of AMES, she’s been instrumental in designing, coordinating and overseeing a multitude of participatory media arts initiatives, and related school-based outreach programs including Crossroads Chronicles and the Salish Harvest Digital Library.
.
SalishHarvest.org is a digital library celebrating wild food & medicine in the Salish Sea Bioregion. Salish Harvest grew out of a series of gatherings that brought together elders from the neighbouring Islands of Penelakut (formerly Kuper) and Galiano to share their knowledge of wild and traditional foods and medicines since 2012.

The Salish Harvest Wild Idea Podcast is an extension of our digital library
Hosted by Safiya Carroll Labelle

Inspired by the intersection of nature and art, Safiya ~ a musician, multimedia designer, and passionate student of plant medicine, designed and built the Salish Harvest brand & website alongside AMES.
.
This project is based on the traditional and asserted territories of the Coast Salish Peoples. We pay our respects to the elders, both past and present, for their wisdom and stewardship of these lands and waters.

Thank you for listening,
We hope you enjoy today's conversation.
