"It Caused a Little Stir!" - My interview with Korey Herrera
Manage episode 351438212 series 3327827
Today, I bring you my interview with my friend and brother Korey Herrera from the Pueblo of Cochiti, one of the 19 Pueblo tribes in the state of New Mexico. Korey and I go back a few years working with the youth from the surrounding communities. We collaborated on many projects bringing experiential learning to the students. Korey was the first person to reach out to the Life of a Dog on the Rez Podcast for an interview, but of course, life got it in the way. Eventually the stars aligned, and we had this great conversation. Korey shares his truth in a refreshingly honest way, the struggles that many of us face trying to uphold our language, culture, and traditions all at the same time trying to live in the modern world. Korey's professional life has taken many different directions over the years, and in his current situation, it has given him an outlet to speak of our beautiful and sometimes backwards way of Pueblo life. Just a warning, a few unsavory words escape our conversation, so if you have young ones listening or are sensitive to language like that, well this is your warning.
I would like to wish everyone many blessings in the new year, also to those individuals that have been elected and appointed tribal leaders, may you serve your people with honor, dignity, and humility.
If you would like to connect with Korey, you will find links to his social media and Spotify comedy album below. Enjoy the show!
