Good afternoon relatives. I'm Maitika Wilbur from the Swinamish and Tulalip Tribes. Welcome back to

another episode of Alma Relations. We are so grateful for all of you that tuned in last week to

Dallas Goldtooth and are really on this podcasting journey with us. So before I say anything else,

I just want to raise my hands to each

because you listen, you subscribe, you donate to our Patreon, and it's because of you,

the listener, that this podcast is possible, and I'm grateful for that. So thank you for being here

with us. Hi, everyone. This is Temeris Lane, Khalitia, from the Golden Eagle clan of Lummi

Nation. It has been such a honor to join you, Mutuntika, and all of our listeners in this podcasting

journey. Today, we've got a really important conversation to share with each of you.

Thanks for tuning in. This is an important one. Biden's apology. And, you know, before we jump in,

The content addresses topics related to trauma and cultural loss

and the ongoing effects of indigenous communities.

So please, relatives, take care while listening,

gather up your medicines, smudge afterwards if that helps you.

And, you know, I realize that, you you know talking about these kind of experiences talking about

boarding schools is not something that we want to have to do and also you know like it doesn't
