Description
Professor and author Jesse Thistle joins Zibby to talk about his bestselling memoir, From the Ashes. Jesse shares how different the overwhelmingly positive reception of his life story has been from the way he used to be perceived, how he believes indigenous people can begin to heal centuries of generational trauma, and what he plans to do next. Jesse also asks listeners to do two simple things in his honor: "Go buy a homeless person or someone down on their luck a meal. Ask them their name."Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: https://amzn.to/3oi9qtHBookshop: https://bit.ly/2WmSpmw Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.
