    Aug 30 2025

    As we go forward, it’s important we reflect back. In this episode, we’ll be revisiting the extended interview done with Choctaw scholar Dr. Michelle Johnson-Jennings. Her work on the Yappali Project - along with Dr. Karina Walters and Sandy Stroud - has been a core inspiration and foundation for the Inchunwa Project. Given the shift in the national politics, the Southeastern ancestral markings revivalization movement moving forward on the ground level in our communities, and the launching of our research club, we wanted to take the time to ground ourselves in the words share with us by Dr. Michelle Johnson-Jennings.

    Halito! If you've not yet listened to part 1 - which was released in the previous episode, please take the time to listen to it prior to starting this episode. In this episode, we reflection on Faithlyn's interview that we heard last week. Additionally, we'll explore what the revivalization movement looks like on the ground in Chickasaw Nation in particular, as well as where we hope the revitalization movement will be going.

    Chickasaw photographer Destiny Green is continuing her project where she is taking portraits of folks who have received their southeastern ancestral markings. This is an important project as it’s documenting representations of ancestral markings in this early stage of the revivalization. If you’re interested in being a part of the at project, check out the linktree in our bio for the google form. Fill out that forum and Destiny will contact you if you’re eligible to be a part of the project: Google form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScVP0rlyM61ZwrAj89Y_iWNPsY-TZlEpdOZBf1uN95Zu0tpsA/viewform

  • EP: 23 S: 4 - Faithlyn Seawright Pt. 1
    Jul 19 2025

    Send us a text

    In this episode, we'll give a listen to the episode recorded back in 2022 of Faithlyn Seawright being interviewed by Olivia. Originally, this interview was meant to be shared during the second series. However, because Faithlyn had already received their ancestral markings on their hands, we decided to hold off to share it at a later date. Three years have passed since the initial interview, and it's been about a year since we last put out an episode. In that time, so much has changed not only for Faithlyn (who now famously received her facial markings during our May 2024 retreat in Broken Bow, OK), but also for the moment on the ground in general. In part 1 and 2 (to be released next week) we'll be taking a look back on Faithlyn's journey, but also where the Southeastern Revivalization Movement is on the ground currently, and our hopes for the future.
