The first episode of IA Hubbub looks at a visionary collaboration happening in IA's own backyard, at the Tending and Gathering Garden, a now-defunct gravel mining site that has been transformed through the efforts of a determined collective of Native American practitioners, in collaboration with University of California faculty, graduate students, and staff from across the region.
Featuring the voices of Diana Almendariz (Wintun/Maidu cultural practitioner, naturalist, and visual artist), Beth Rose Middleton Manning (Professor of Native American Studies at UC Davis), and Jacquelyn Ross (Pomo/Coast Miwok cultural practitioner, and Director of Undergraduate Admissions at UC Davis), the episode introduces listeners to this important eco-cultural site, which also offers a successful model for university-community partnerships.
Special thanks to Juliette Beck (YoloSol Collective) for contributions to this episode, to Ameen Lofti for providing original music for this series, and to Diana Almendariz for providing the image of the TGG. This episode was edited and produced by Anuj Vaidya.
