Don't feel ashamed of who you are
What does it mean to embody two genders within one person? In this episode of 'Empathetic Witness', Angelina Pratt sits down with Massey Whiteknife, an Indigenous two-spirit celebrity, to explore this profound question. Massey opens up about the rich history of two-spirit people in Indigenous culture and the noble roles they once held. He also delves into the compounded trauma caused by residential schools and the misrepresentation of the two-spirit identity by the broader LGBTQ community.
Growing up in a conservative northern Alberta community, Massey faced immense challenges coming out, but his story is one of resilience and strength. He shares how he honors his unique identity by educating others and providing invaluable information. This heartfelt conversation also introduces a lifesaving app that every Indigenous person should have. Tune in to hear Massey's inspiring journey and the powerful message he brings to the table.
