This is part one of a two-part deep conversation with K. Fran Davis, who's Haudenosaunee  from the Grand River Territory. She is an Indigenous consultant, researcher, teacher, and owner of Indigenous Learn: Two Row Education Services. 

In this episode, we learn a bit about Davis' life story and her journey to becoming an Indigenous educator. We also talk about the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Haldimand Tract, and the continuing effect of colonial policies.
