#38: Erynne Gilpin - We are now Ancestors

Our conversation with Erynne Gilpin continues, as we delve into the power our ancestry has while looking to the past and future. 

Erynne is a mixed Michif (the Pás MB, Citizen of Manitoba Métis Federation) Filipina and Celtic educator, film maker, rock climber and mama.

She is also co-founder of Indigenous Womxn Climb.

Erynne shares the integral role climbing has in her connection to land, and how it informs her cultural teachings. She also talks to us about the importance of traditional place names, and how we can all take the time to honour the land we recreate on.
