Kultivating Kapwa: Conversations with Community, Episode 16

"Sacred Shapeshifting - Body, Mind, and Spirit Transformation of Self for Honorable Relation"

This is a special holiday release episode of Kultivating Kapwa, and we are joined by Lukayo Diwata Bitoon. We explore the concepts of love and justice, discuss where their work is landing, examine the rights and responsibilities of being a guest, the continuum of responsibility and wilderness, and more.

Lukayo Diwata Bitoon, or Lukayo Faye Estrella, is of the Bikol people from Mount Mayon in Albay. They were raised in Tkaronto/Toronto, of the territories of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Mississaugas of New Credit, the Huron-Wendat, and the Metis of Ontario under the treaties of the Dish With One Spoon and Two Row Wampum. They currently reside in unceded and unsurrendered Algonquin territory, colonially called Ottawa, Canada.
