A very real & raw conversation from an Indigenous perspective about the current state of society & how we can integrate a more connected way of being into it. We speak of the struggles of being a modern human that is not connected to a tribal way of living, how do we navigate social constructs of the modern world in a way that isn't destructive? Some of the topics we chat about: - Navigating neurodivergence in the modern world. - Wrong story about climate change - Old Knowledge getting thrown around with no roots. - Our role as humans of caretaking. - Integrating & adapting to the present, even when it breaks your heart. - Creating symbiotic social structures - The eco-system of society. Tyson always speaks & shares his unfiltered truth which is a breath of fresh air amidst a sea of misinformation on the media. Tyson Yunkaporta is a researcher, arts critic, poet, and traditional wood carver. He works as a senior lecturer in Indigenous Knowledges and is the founder of the Indigenous Knowledge Systems Lab at Deakin University.
