  • Summary

  • In this episode, we are joined by Donna Gentle Spirit Barron: the family historian of the Matinecock people. We only scratch the surface of Native history in this episode, but It’s a privilege for us to hear some of that story today—and to hear some of Donna’s own experiences as a Matinecock Indian, and as a Black woman. And it’s also a necessary challenge for us to hear about Zion as it appears in the history and stories and experiences of Matinecock people, and people of color. Because Zion looks different from this angle. We can see new facets of our history—gifts of our legacy that we have forgotten and are called to reclaim, wounds in our history that we have pushed out of mind, but are now called to heal.

    Healing begins by telling the truth: by listening to Donna as she knocks down the stories that leave her and her family out, and then, by telling a new story of Zion that keeps the call of justice at the center.
