Robert Satiacum on "Make No Bones About It." July 2, 2023 4PM

One day before International Indigenous Peoples Day, President Joe Biden created on August 8th, 2023, a  new national monument in Arizona covering close to a million acres of lands surrounding the Grand Canyon important and sacred to nearby Native American nations. The Baaj Nwaavjo I’tah Kukveni (Ancestral Footprints of the Grand Canyon National Monument) is the fifth designated monument by Biden in the past 10 months, and the new monument prohibits new uranium mining claims in the region. 

The legacy of Nuclear Colonialism, which is includes over a century of uranium mining, and its impacts on Native American nations, peoples, and Mother Earth remains a highly censored in the American mass and digital media. Despite the recent media attention of the film Oppenheimer (2023, dir. Christopher Nolan) released on July 21st, 2023, in the United States and August 6th, 2023, marking the 78th anniversary of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima wherein 140,000 people died in Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, and 74,000 in Nagasaki three days later, Native Americans and settler colonial violence are absent from these stories and the American public consciousness. 

Guest:
Ian Zabarte (Newe Sogobia [Western Shoshone] Nation), is a long-time Indigenous activist who worked tirelessly to stop the Yucca Mountain high-level nuclear waste repository in Western Shoshone Treaty lands (also known as the state of Nevada). He is also a board member of the Native Community Action Council (NCAC), works on numerous anti-nuclear colonialism projects, and is featured in 2023 documentary Downwind, the story about Mercury, Nevada in heart of the Western Shoshone nation, becoming the testing site of 928 large-scale nuclear weapons from 1951 to 1992.

Love Me Forever

Let us close our eyes and take a deep breath inward, feeling the water molecules dancing in our bodies, on the second deep breath, we honor All Our Relations, Past, Present, and Future, and on the third breath, feel yourself gracefully transform into a magical droplet of water as we join together in an immense cloud amidst a thunderstorm high above a great mountain. Lightning flashes all around and the thunder beings rumble as we begin to fall one by one out of the sky and onto the back of the great land mass that is Turtle Island.  Trickling down into a high desert mountain stream, we flow onward into the great river of Life, releasing what no longer serves us and floating out into the vast Ocean, our Mother, where we dance and sing our own unique water song, calling in what we wish to bring into our lives, and joining together again as One, honoring the sacred Agua de la Vida. 

Bless your journey Belovedz, 
Love, Fiddlehead

Internationally acclaimed as a mesmerizing live performer, Cary Morin’s soul-stirring voice and jaw-dropping fingerstyle guitar playing have captivated audiences for decades.  

Dial into Morin’s career catalog and discover a musical chameleon whose sonic landscapes fuse together the best of American roots music. “Cary is a unique and brilliant player, songwriter and singer. I have huge respect for his style and technique,” says legendary multi-instrumentalist and songwriter David Bromberg. “If you haven’t heard him yet, you should.”  

Morin’s latest project, Innocent Allies, honors his family’s Native American heritage and is inspired by the genius of famous western artist, Charles Marion Russell. “This record is a masterpiece worthy of its place among the great works of art it was created to honor,” says Trina Shoemaker, the Grammy-winning producer who mixed and mastered the album at her Alabama studio. 

Morin’s music has reached millions as he’s traveled the world with prestigious performances at the Kennedy Center, Lincoln Center, Paris Jazz Festival, and Folk Alliance International in addition to others. Morin has been featured on international television and radio programs hosted by the BBC and NPR. He has had the honor of sharing stages as a collaborator or supporting act for musical luminaries such as Taj Mahal, Los Lobos, Jackson Browne, Bonnie Raitt, Joan Osborne, David Bromberg, and Arlo Guthrie, to name a few.

Morin’s musical talents and creative contributions have garnered a multitude of awards and accolades: two-time winner of the Indigenous Music Award for Best Blues CD (2019 and 2017); Independent Music Award for Best Blues CD (2018); Native Arts and Cultures Fellowship (2018); and First Peoples Fund Artist in Business Leadership fellowship (2017). He received an honorable mention in the 2018 International Songwriting Competition.

Morin has also achieved international recognition as a collaborator, dancer and musical theater composer. His song, “Ole Midlife Crisis,” written and performed with the Pura Fé Trio, reached #17 on France’s iTunes blues charts in 2011.  With the Red Willow Dancers, he performed in Japan as a special guest of the world-renowned Kodo Drummers. Back home in Northern Colorado, he co-authored the play, “Turtle Island,” a critically-acclaimed 50-cast-member production that sold out for two consecutive years.  Morin’s musical journey began in the late 1970s and burgeoned in the late 1990s when he founded The Atoll, a rock-reggae-blues band that toured the United States for over 13 years.  

Born in Billings, Montana, he hails from a rich cultural heritage as a Crow tribal member with Assiniboine Sioux and Black ancestry. He spent the formative years of his youth in Great Falls, Montana picking through guitar standards at neighborhood gatherings.
Morin currently maintains a busy performance schedule as a solo artist, as a duo with his partner Celeste, and with his band Cary Morin & Ghost Dog, a high-energy roots rock band. He also collaborates with renowned Indigenous artist, Pura Fé. When not captivating audiences across the US and Europe, he finds solace and inspiration in Northern Colorado, which he proudly calls home.

Join award-winning host Pam Palmater, Mi’kmaw lawyer, author & activist, as she shares the stories of Indigenous warriors and activists on the front lines of protecting Indigenous lands, peoples, and cultures.

Unfurling like a mysterious dancing Fern in a gentle Appalachian breeze, elusive as a midnight Jaguar...not unlike the Fibonacci spiral, nestled deep within a mystical temperate rainforest, Fiddlehead springs up and emerges from the undergrowth with exotic frequencies from all around this great Turtle Island. 
  This particular dancing fiddlehead fern grows up through the soil with a humble intention to channel healing and transformation through the potent Medicina of music and dance. The liquid flowing layers and waves take us on a potent journey through the interwoven mycellial networks, deep into the core of Pacha Mama and the deepest oceans, to the streets of Berlin, out into the dense rainforests of the Amazon, Congo, Osa, and to the vast mysterious deserts of the far East and highest peaks of the Andes, to the Celtic highlands, Appalachians, Cascades, Sierras, and Misty Mountains of Middle-Earth. 
  Fiddlehead's flow is inspired by a lifetime of deep connection to nature, ceramic art, nature connection and guiding with children and teenagers, ceremony, world travel, and a passionate study and full immersion in a plethora of musical genres since early childhood. The Bass forest is infinite...
