Birds are extremely awesome. But birding can be intimidating and difficult. Always Be Birdin' aims to change the narrative of birding. How we bird, where we bird and who is birding. Join me as I go out into the field with BIPOC birding experts, novice baby birders like myself and nature enthusiasts to do some chaotic, goofy birding while dropping a knowledge bomb or two to show that no matter what, you can Always Be Birdin'.

Into the Depths with Tara Roberts 59:13

Last week I had my first ever live recording and today I have the absolute honor to bring you an interview with National Geographic Explorer and Storyteller, MIT Fellow and scuba diver, Tara Roberts. We discuss her recently released podcast, Into the Depths, where we as the listeners get to follow Tara as she works with fellow Black divers through Diving with a Purpose as they search for and help document sunken ships that carried enslaved African and were a part of the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade. Tara talks with me about her experiences in making this podcast, what inspired her to learn how to dive and how that ultimately lead her down this deeply personal journey of identity through history and what it means to connect with our ancestors as well as descendants that are all around us today. This episode is personal to me as a mixed race Black woman in America. I was holding back tears for parts of this interview and am in awe of Tara's journey and her mission to bring the work of these Black scuba divers to the surface (no pun) and work to re-tell the stories of our ancestors and us as descendants.

Liberated Paths for Liberating BIPOC 1:21:27

Small grassroots organizations and individuals are the ones on the ground doing the hard work to create safe and educational spaces in nature for Black, Indigenous and people of color. What does it mean to have big dreams for our communities and NOT have to give them up because of barriers to funding? Philanthropy and distribution of money is gate kept by wealthy white people who are the ones to decide who is and isn't "worthy" of funding. The same money gets passed around at the top while those grassroots organizations are struggling to enact the change we need for our communities because we can't afford to put on the type of programming we want and that our communities deserve. Today, I speak with Chandrika Francis who is the Founder and Facilitator of Oshun Swim School based in Seattle, WA, Lydia Parker who is a Co-Founder and Executive Director of Hunters of Color based in Portland, OR and Alex Troutman, Hunters of Color Mentee and Wildlife Biologist based in Austell, GA. We all do different work, but we are connected by our missions to create safe, healing and educational spaces for Black, Indigenous and people of color outside as well as the grant that is enabling us to aggressively pursue our dreams for a different future. We speak in depth and detail about the Liberated Paths Grantmaking Program through Justice Outside, why it is so important and how it is going to help us to lead our communities into collective liberation outside. Wether you are a birder, hunter, grad student, biologist, nature lover or starting up your own small organization, this episode will help you understand the disparities of philanthropy and distribution of funding and teach you how it can and is being done differently. -- Oshun Swim School - http://www.oshunswimschool.com Donate : https://www.patreon.com/oshunswimschool Follow on IG : https://www.instagram.com/oshunswimschool/ Hunters of Color - https://www.huntersofcolor.org Follow on IG : https://www.instagram.com/huntersofcolor/ Donate : https://www.patreon.com/huntersofcolor Alex Troutman - https://alexktroutman.wixsite.com/n8tureal/about Follow on IG : https://www.instagram.com/n8ture_al/ Donate : Paypal N8ture_Al Justice Outside - https://justiceoutside.org Follow on IG : https://www.instagram.com/we_are_justice_outside/ " What is the Liberated Paths approach? With the Liberated Paths Grantmaking Program, we are working to create a more just and sustainable outdoor and environmental movement. The Liberated Paths Grantmaking Program aims to shift resources to and build power with Black, Indigenous, and Communities of Color. To build a more just and sustainable outdoor and environmental movement, the Liberated Paths Grantmaking Program supports outdoor initiatives and organizations that cultivate and celebrate the contributions of Black, Indigenous, and Communities of Color and affirm the many experiences and identities our communities hold. Liberated Paths currently supports recreation, marine and coastal conservation, and land conservation initiatives in Arizona, New Mexico, Oregon, Washington and California. As we shift resources and build power with these programs, we hope to expand Liberated Paths nationally. Why did Justice Outside create this program? Now more than ever, our communities’ health and wellbeing depend on having access to the outdoors and a voice in how our land and water are used. But for decades, systemic racism has determined who is welcome in outdoor spaces and whose experiences and voices are valued. Black, Indigenous, and People of Color-led organizations are on the frontlines of the grassroots work being done to build a better planet but our work is chronically overlooked and underfunded. We know that when our voices are left out, our communities suffer, and our planet does too. With the Liberated Paths Grantmaking Program, we envision a way to bridge that gap." -- Follow me on IG : @AlwaysBeBirdin_Podcast Twitter : @alwaysbebirdin Donate : https://www.buymeacoffee.com/AlwaysBeBirdin…

Roundtable Discussion: BIPOC Bird Clubs pt. 2 50:12

3 years temu50:12

In part 2 of this roundtable discussion, Candace, Daniela, Dexter, Angel, Jason and I dive deep into several important topics. We talk about why BIPOC only spaces are important for us to continue to breakdown historical narratives of cross cultural tension within BIPOC communities that is a design of white supremacy and Bird Joy can help break these cycles of in-culture discrimination. BIPOC peoples are of the land, of the water, of the trees and the animals and when we talk about reclaiming these spaces outside, it is more than just creating safe spaces, it is bringing us back to our ancestral rights to be with the land and however we choose to show up in it, white folk must be okay with it. It is no longer whiteness that dictates how this land is used and what it looks like. Shout out to our mentors of color who set us on our individual and collective paths to Occupy Birding and Normalize Bird Joy. **Candace Williams is credited with the term "Occupy Birding" which is used at the end of this episode. **Dexter Patterson is credited with the term "Bird Joy" which is used multiple times in this episode and the last one.

Meet five leaders in the community creating necessary spaces for BIPOC through organized outings. In this first part, we are introduced to each of them and hear their stories of what brought them to birding and eventually to starting BIPOC birding clubs or networks. All of these people are wonderful and have a deep love of birding and brining that join into the BIPOC communities where they are from. In part 2 we talk a lot more deeply about the importance of BIPOC only spaces in birding. 03:37 Candace Williams of Chicago BIPOC Birding Network (unofficial) Chicago IL 07:43 Daniela Herrera of Chicago BIPOC Birding Network (unofficial) Chicago IL IG: https://www.instagram.com/latina.birder/?hl=en 14:07 Angel Ramirez of Oxnard Birder's Club, Oxnard CA IG : https://www.instagram.com/oxnardbirdersclub/?hl=en 24:20 Dexter Patterson of BIPOC Birding Club of Wisconsin, Madison WI IG: https://www.instagram.com/bipocbirdingclubofwi/?hl=en Website: https://www.bipocbirdingclub.org 38:46 Jason Hall of In Color Birding Club, Philadelphia PA IG: https://www.instagram.com/incolorbirdingclub/?hl=en -- Follow me on IG @alwaysbebirdin_podcast Donate: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/AlwaysBeBirdin…

Approximations: Avian Training and White Supremacy with Corina Newsome 1:03:56

4 years temu1:03:56

1:03:56

As bird lovers, one of the best and most memorable experiences we all hope to have is a close encounter with birds. Be it through meeting a falconer, visiting your local conservation organization or zoo or having a once in a lifetime moment out birding, seeing birds up close is nothing short of amazing. When we think about meeting a bird who is in captivity for educational purposes, what does it take for those birds to feel comfortable with the people that work with them and you as an audience member? Today, I talk with Corina Newsome (@hood__naturalist), Ornithologist and Community Engagement Manager with Georgia Audubon, about the extremely exciting and interesting world of avian training for educational purposes. There is a lot to this profession and it is not an easy job. Corina and I discuss different training methods, bird language, species differences in captivity and why relationship and trust building is so important between bird and trainer. We then Dig Into It and take all of these ideas around avian training and create a powerful metaphor for how white supremacy operates in institutional settings with Black, Brown and Indigenous people of color. We hone in on and dissect how important the intentionally slow, incremental steps (or approximations) towards re-building relationship and trust with the BIPOC community can be the radical behavioral shift white conservation organizations need to understand if they truly want to dismantle the pillars of oppression within their institutions. -- Follow Corina Newsome on IG here : https://www.instagram.com/hood__naturalist/ and connect with all her work here : https://linktr.ee/corinanewsome -- Resources for avian behavior and training which focus on choice and relationship based techniques https://iaate.org/ https://naturalencounters.com/ https://avian-behavior.org/ -- Follow me here : https://www.instagram.com/alwaysbebirdin_podcast/ Donate to the podcast here : https://www.buymeacoffee.com/AlwaysBeBirdin…

The Fight For Equity: Defenders United and Audubon For All on Unionizing 1:02:22

4 years temu1:02:22

1:02:22

It's been a while, but, we’re back with the first episode of the second year of the Always Be Birdin' podcast with a vengeance. In episodes past, I called attention to the National Audubon Society article in Politico where there was accusations of racism, sexism and retaliation within the organization and I asked why isn't anyone talking more about this seeing as National Audubon is considered THE go to for all things conservation and birds. This episode has been and remains to be my most downloaded episode, but what's changed? Since then, third party law firm, Morgan & Lewis put out their findings which called for a redistribution of power, the Union, Audubon for All, was birthed and the then Executive Director, David Yarnold, has left the organization. Other non-profit environmental organizations such as Defenders of Wildlife have followed suit and are also unionizing. Today I bring back two of my favorite people and past guests, Rosie Sanchez of Defenders of Wildlife and Tykee James of National Audubon, to address the question... "why unionize?" Both Rosie and Tykee talk details of where both organizations are at (neither union has been voluntarily recognized) as well as highlight some of the ways you as listeners can help. We also get deep in conversation around what it truly means when the people in power positions refuse to listen to their workers, how that is a direct reflection on society as a whole and why it’s important to dismantle white supremacy and fear for a better future for everyone. This episode is a call back to the discussion Rosie and I had in episode 8 and the issues I bring up about National Audubon in episode 9. Let’s kick off year 2 of the podcast with a hard hitting BANG! -- Support Audubon For All here : https://www.birdunion.org/ https://www.instagram.com/audubonforall/ Support Defenders United here : https://linktr.ee/DefendersUnited https://www.instagram.com/defenders_staff/ -- Support the podcast by donating here : https://www.buymeacoffee.com/AlwaysBeBirdin…

On this 6th day of Black Birders Week 2021, @blackafinstem has asked us to bridge the gap between past, present and future of birding. For this idea in particular, I bring you Tykee James, co-organizer of the Freedom Birders project. This project is built on the blueprint of the Freedom Riders who were Civil Rights activists who rode on buses throughout the segregated south to protest the non-enforcement of desegregated public buses. Freedom Birders seeks to change the way we bird in America and is also inspired by Black Birders Week 2020 and the Black Lives Matter Movement. Join Tykee and I as we jump into the deep end and discuss the Freedom Birders project, where it came from, why it's necessary and what it could look like for the future of birding and racism in America. One of the most important aspects of Freedom Birders is education.

Today I have the pleasure of chatting with Courtney Akinosho, Founder and CEO of Black Girls Bird, a wonderful organization whose mission is to provide Black and Indigenous non-men of all ages access to nature while promoting holistic well-being utilizing the joy of birding and photography. Courtney opens up about the origin of her organization, why it is so deeply important to her and we can take pain and turn it into positivity. Day 5 of Black Birders Week centers safety in the outdoors for Black people. Courtney and I speak candidly, openly and deeply about how nature is often weaponized by white men, white women and Black men and how we can't have the conversation about safety in the outdoors without centering Black women's experiences and voices and what it looks like to truly have the conversation in a deep and meaningful way without hiding and tiptoeing around the true dangers outside.

Today I sit down with Raquel Velez, founder and CEO of Alpine Parrot, a company who's mission is to celebrate larger bodies in the outdoors. This celebration is done specifically through providing hiking pants that are comfortable and useful for bodies that aren't represented or thought about in the outdoor apparel world. Raquel and I dig into the falsity of the term obese, how health and fatness do not go together and how dangerous of an idea this can be for BIPOC folks in the outdoors. We also talk about the Kea, the worlds only alpine parrot and why it's the inspiration for the company's name.
