4. Decolonizing Wealth and the Kevin Costner Effect

In this episode, we speak to two incredible humans, Quinn Meawasige @quinnmeawasige and Jessica Bolduc @jboldlygo, about what it is like to be forced through problematic philanthropic processes. Further, we discuss building deep relationships with Indigenous peers through a shared traumatic experience. Quinn has held several positions with OIYPP and currently acts as Steering Committee Chair. Outside of being a bad-ass Kwe, Jess is the Executive Director of the @4rs_youth_movement. We explore what it feels like to be Indigenous leaders, working within the philanthropic sector and seeking the same pots of money. We discuss our dreams and wishes for the future of Indigenous communities and the betterment of philanthropy.
