Welcome to Episode 13 of See the Change Podcast. This is Part 1 of our conversation with filmmaker and activist Morgan Tsetta.

In this episode, we talk about her start in film and her turning point from Hollywood aspirations to Indigenous storytelling. We also discuss her advocacy for Yellowknife Dene in holding the federal government accountable for reconciliation for the historic Giant Mine.

Morgan Tsetta is a Yellowknives Dene First Nation filmmaker and photographer, currently living on unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Watuth Nations, colonially referred to as Vancouver, Canada. With a passion for film, photography, and her Native culture, Morgan is committed to emphasizing the voices of Dene people, and the power of self-representation for Indigenous sovereignty.

We acknowledge that we are acting within a colonial system that has long served to oppress and marginalize First Nations, Inuit and Métis people. SeeChange stands in solidarity with Indigenous peoples across Turtle Island and around the world in their struggle for their right to live on and maintain a connection to their lands, express their culture, practice their customs, speak and protect their languages, and eat their traditional foods
