    • The Final Episode
      Jun 21 2023

      After three seasons, we have come to our final episode! It's a bittersweet moment, but a celebratory one nonetheless. Thank you all very much for joining us since we launched in early 2021! For our last Storykeepers show, Jennifer suggested talking to Waubgeshig a bit about his most recent and forthcoming novels, Moon of the Crusted Snow and Moon of the Turning Leaves. After that, we wanted to recap our three seasons and talk about some highlights. We had fun reminiscing and revisiting some of the bigger themes in Indigenous literature we were fortunate to explore. Big thanks to all our guests, the authors who wrote the amazing works we read and discussed, and of course, to you, our loyal listeners. You keep the spirit of Storykeepers alive!

    • The Sentence by Louise Erdrich
      May 5 2023

      This month's episode is a big one! As usual, we have a in-depth discussion about a great book, but we also have a big announcement. This will be our second-last episode! You'll hear why in the first few minutes, and we'll be back next month to continue that conversation and wrap everything up. In the meantime, please enjoy our chat about The Sentence by Louise Erdrich. It's a wonderful novel about an Indigenous-owned bookstore in Minneapolis and the vibrant and complex Indigenous community around it. Because it's our last full chat with a guest host, we wanted to come full-circle and invite Daniel Heath Justice to join us. We featured his book Why Indigenous Literatures Matter in our very first episode. Please enjoy this compelling and insightful discussion with Daniel about The Sentence!
