Your Spirit Animal is a Jackass (with Simon Moya-Smith)

This episode contains stories about domestic violence, sexual assault, and genocide. In this week's episode, I speak with Simon Moya-Smith, Oglala Lakota and Chicano writer and journalist. He reached out to me with an interest in sharing an Indigenous perspective on the spirit world. It was a really important, enlightening, and heartbreaking conversation where Simon shares several supernatural experiences, discusses cultural appropriation, clears up common misconceptions, and brings to light the real world horror that Indigenous people still face today.
