Tunes From Turtle Island

Indigenous made music from North America

Hello There

Hello There

Welcome to the only European radio show (AFAIK) to promote the indigenous made music of North America/Turtle Island, which consists now of 23 national states, and Greenland. Formally called the Turtle Island Radio Show. I’m a one-man operation and I do this because I really love the music but also to raise awareness of the environmental and social issues faced by these communities. At present the show goes out weekly on Resonance FM in London UK. Four FM stations in Austria, Radio Freequenns,  Radio Agora, and Radio Proton, and Radio Fro. And in Italy on Radio Onde Furlane. The show is given freely to non-commercial stations or those that are part of the European Free Radio network. It is also Podcast by Pantheon Podcasts every Friday. I am a multidisciplinary artist who loves music. More about me 🙂 If you like what I’m doing a please consider giving a small donation to help me continue.  Buy Me a Coffee.

Indigenous & Eco Resistance

Indigenous & Eco Resistance

Environmentalists and the Coyote Valley Band of Pomo Indians countered that PG&E – which is facing increasing pressure to stop its equipment from starting fires across the state – should move their power lines instead.
“They had their cherry picker and their wood chipper ready,” said Polly Girvin, an environmental and Indigenous rights activist. “But we weren’t going to back down.”

Two bald eagles nested in a pine for years. A utility company tried to chop it down

Up a winding northern California highway, beneath a 120ft ponderosa pine tree, a group of environmentalists gathered for some high stakes bird-watching. Everyone was waiting for a pair of bald eagles to swoop into their nest, an orb of twigs and branches balanced amid the tree’s scraggly branches.

‘Assassinated in cold blood’: activist killed protesting Georgia’s ‘Cop City’

elkis Terán spoke with her child, Manuel, nearly every day by WhatsApp from her home in Panama City, Panama. She also had names and numbers for some of Manuel’s friends, in case she didn’t hear from the 26-year-old who was protesting “Cop City”, a planned gigantic training facility being built in a wooded area near Atlanta, Georgia.

I’m pretty sure this is as relevant now as it was a year ago 🤬
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
“The Saskatoon freezing deaths were a series of three deaths of Indigenous Canadians in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan in the early 2000s, which were confirmed to have been caused by members of the Saskatoon Police Service. The police officers would arrest Indigenous people, usually men, for alleged drunkeness and/or disorderly behaviour, sometimes for reasons without cause. The officers would then drive them to the outskirts of the city at night in the winter, and abandon them, leaving them stranded in sub-zero temperatures.
The practice was known as taking Indigenous people for “starlight tours” and dates back to 1976. As of 2021, despite convictions for related offences, no Saskatoon police officer has been convicted specifically for having caused freezing deaths.” Berk Jodoin music
