Description
The Historical Wisdom Podcast is a conversation with Native Americans living in Inland Southern California about their health experiences and what health care providers should know about how history affects physical health, well-being, and daily interactions. We focus on the concept of historical trauma in the hopes that sharing this information will turn into knowledge and then into wisdom that can transform the delivery of health care. The Historical Wisdom Podcast is produced by the Chihuum Piiuywmk Inach/Gathering of Good Minds Project, a collaboration between Riverside/San Bernardino Indian Health, Inc. and the University of California, Riverside. Our project is funded by an Engagement Award from the Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute. For more information visit us at https://GoGM.live

This episode focuses on the history of boarding schools as a federal policy for eliminating Native knowledge and practices in favor of colonial institutions and life. Central to this policy of cultural genocide was the phrase “kill the Indian and save the man.” Boarding school separated children from their families and tribes/community, culture, language, and land. They were exposed to mental, physical, and sexual abuse, disease, loss of religious beliefs, and knowledge of how to be cared for...

Much of this history informs trust rel...

This episode features a conversation with RSBCIHI Chief Operating Officer, Bill Thomsen. Mr. Thomsen shares some of the history of how the consortium of the nine tribes was started.

Despite this obligation, IHS is persistently underfunded. Nevertheless, RSBCIH...
