The Muwekma Ohlone’s “Trail of Truth” with Charlene Nijmeh
In this episode, host Lyla June interviews Charlene Nijmeh, the chairwoman of the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe, which is comprised of all known surviving American Indian Lineages aboriginal to the San Francisco Bay Region.
Throughout the episode, the discussion focuses around the powerful history of the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe, stories of resilience, and the "Trail of Truth", a 90-day horseback journey across the United States, all the way from San Francisco to Washington, beginning August 4th.
With a strong sense of public service and duty towards her tribal communities, Charlene sits at the helm of the "Trail of Truth" protest and is determined to make sure that the voices of the unrecognized tribes are heard.
