POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Layli Long Soldier returns to the show to discuss her latest remarkable poetry collection We (and/or Wé). We talk about these two connotations of we/wé, the questions of address, audience, identity and kinship implicit in them both. We explore the many visual art installations documented within We and how they intersect with both poetry and community. We explore what it means to treat a poem, not yet finished, as having its own desires and needs different than the poet's. And we look at language and the law, navigating thorny questions of language, as a tool and as a weapon, when it comes to treaties, to Land Back, and Layli’s art and writing practice engaging with it all.

You've heard of artist-in-residence, but what about elder-in-residence?

A pilot program at Racing Magpie in Rapid City works with Lakota elders to share language and foodways ‘to honor them as cultural leaders.’

The residency program has kept older and younger people connected.

“If this wasn’t happening, I would be sitting at home talking to myself. No, I’m just kidding. It’s really helpful for me, a lot of teaching from young people,” Dollie says.

Racing Magpie's Rae Schad has advice for other organizations looking to follow suit with an elder-in-residence program: Ask your community what it wants to see.
