As I get ready to head back to work, I'm happy to see this podcast conversation with Derritt Mason out! We talked about rowdy classrooms and how covid changed our ability to visit taylorinstitute.ucalgary.ca/…

Off to Edmonton for a new job at UAlberta! The rare chance to be an Indigenous academic working in my home territory. I'll miss Calgary! I started at MRU in 2012, a goofy Native kid pretending to be a grownup, but so many people mentored me and said the quiet parts out loud.
