A powerful story revealing the struggle between indigenous persons, in particular the women and those who come to their homeland to reap benefits and sadly exploit them. This companion podcasts dives deep and educates on the trials indigenous persons endure and the resilience and strength they draw upon to rise above it and find justice.

Excellent podcast companion to season 4...

This podcast really delves deeply into the Alaskan Native culture, their history, and the injustice and secrets that have come to life over the last decade.

sincere thoughtful discussion about real issues

The podcast brought home to me how careful the show runners were to be authentic and respectful of the Inuit culture, and the lengths they went to in order to secure indigenous people for the actors.

Telling Indigenous stories

Even thought this was a fictional series, I admired how they incorporated real indigenous people, culture and stories to show a realistic depiction of the lives of Inupiat.
