Tribal Research Specialist: The Podcast

Send us a text

In this new episode, the newly formed enterprise, Tribal Research Specialist (TRS), provides a brief introduction to our services and vision. As usually, the episode starts with a song. In this case, the song comes from a private reel-to-reel collection. The song was unmarked and unattributed to the artists. The TRS discusses the possible origin of the song and asks listeners to provide what they may know.
The episode continues with a discussion concerning issues surrounding the encroachment of Institutional Review Board protocol in Tribal community research. Further, the discussion focuses on Tribal Nations advancements and how this progress has required adaptations that have not always reflected Tribal values. This aligns with many other issues that can arise when Tribal people and our unique traditions and philosophies are subjugated by Federal and societal pressures.

The second half of the episode revisits the same song while still maintaining the discussion surrounding ethnographic approached to Tribal Phenomenon used by Tribal researchers. The sharing of knowledge is discusses as straying from the spirit of generosity. This is not to ignore the fact that IRB's were and are intended to protect Tribal people from exploitation, yet how far do we have to go to emulate a process that does not align with the realities of Tribal life.
Additionally, the TRC discussion veers into thoughts of 90's powwow music as an example of shifting ideologies and values related to sharing.
