EP06 S02: Torey
In this episode we will begin our second series where we talk with Choctaw women and 2SLGBTQ+ folks from our original group of Choctaw folks to discuss their feelings, expectations, and experience while anticipating receiving traditional tattoos. We are so excited to begin this new series with you all. As you'll hear, Torey's interview is quite poignant in many places and she has such great insight to share. If you've not yet gotten a chance to listen to series one, we highly suggest you do. Many of the interviews going forward will touch on or make reference to the history shared in that series. Listening to it (and doing further research into it) will give you a deeper understanding of the conversations you'll be hearing.
