For a period of time, Circassian women were considered the epitome of beauty. With their fair skin, blue or green eyes, and delicate features, they became an idealized standard of feminine beauty in both the Ottoman Empire and 19th-century Western Europe. But this admiration was deeply entwined with systems of power, slavery, and the commodification of beauty.

Sovereign Syre and Ela Darling welcome their very first guest! Dr. Kim Tallbear is a Native scholar who literally wrote the book on Native American DNA, and has become the defacto expert on self-indigenization, more commonly known as race shifting, ethnic fraud, or pretendianism. We talk with Dr. Tallbear about what indigenous ethnic fraud is, why it's perpetrated so easily and frequently, what the fraudsters get out of it, and what we can do to disrupt it.  Find Dr. Tallbear:  https://kimtallbear.substack.com/ https://mediaindigena.com/podcast/...2024-03-041h 31ILL REPUTE! with Sovereign Syre & Becky PooleILL REPUTE! with Sovereign Syre & Becky PooleBuffy Sainte Marie | 2 The Big Ones Get AwayIn 2022, PBS released the documentary “Carry It On” about Buffy Sainte Marie’s life.
