What does it mean to be Indigenous in a modern American city? This episode, we continue our conversation with Kerry Hawk Lessard, Executive Director of Native American Lifelines, about the deep and often overlooked history of Baltimore’s Indigenous tribes — and the vibrant Urban Indigenous community that calls the city home today.

From cultural preservation to health equity, Lessard shares how identity, tradition, and wellness intersect in urban spaces — and how Baltimore’s Indigenous voices continue to shape the city’s story.
