Episode 2 - Givers: Waters

In this episode, Michelle and Emily dive into a discussion of water and its mutli-faceted meanings for people and the morethanhumans who make the Mountain West home. In a region largely defined by aridity, water is (literally) life. The hosts welcome guest Heather Whiteman Runs Him, member of the Crow nation, associate clinical professor of law at the University of Arizona and the Director of UArizona's Tribal Justice Clinic. Episode 2 takes us on a journey down rivers and into aquifers in order to begin to think about how the false dualisms of nature/culture and nature/technology can best be understood through studies of water. The hosts also ask that listeners consider water as a particularly profound example of the power of the morethanhuman to affect historic developments. The goal of the episode is for listeners to learn that every drop of water from their tap is More Than it appears to be.
