What is the role of Matriarchy in Indigenous futurism? Stephanie Peltier can tell you from experience, it’s critical.

Stephanie Peltier is well known across Canada as “The Matriarch Who Raised One of Canada’s Leading Indigenous Water Activists”. As the single mother to Autumn Peltier, along with her two other daughters Naomi and Ceira, she’s experienced all of the ups and downs of supporting her family and fighting for a better world, while staying connected to community and ceremony.

Stephanie joins the Matriarch Movement podcast to share her insights on the connection between Matriarchy, teachings from the land, and Indigenous futures, and she shares what it’s been like to raise three daughters with Indigenous values at her core.
