In this episode we are sharing a speech given by Indigenous writer and academic Lee Maracle of the Stó꞉lō nation, who crossed over on November 11, 2021 at the age of 71.
The award-winning writer and esteemed mentor garnered worldwide attention for her powerful writing and life-long efforts to fight Indigenous oppression, particularly of women, in so-called Canada. Lee was a dedicated communist whose life work was to unite the theories of socialism and women's liberation, from an Indigenous perspective.
In honor of Lee's memory, we are sharing this speech she gave on the topic of the connection between violence against women and violence against the Earth.
Thank you so much to all who listen and partake in Lee Maracle's message to the world. We hope you can also find the time to read some of her brilliant writings.
