In this episode, Audra and Sadie begin their discussion on There, There by Tommy Orange. Following a large cast of Native American characters in Oakland, CA leading up to the Big Oakland Powwow, this novel forces the reader to confront difficult topics of privilege, generational trauma, cultural identity, and the violent history of our nation.
Focusing on themes, rather than plot, this episode would still be a great listen if you did not have the chance to read the book.
