S1 | Ep. 007 | Indigenous Motherhood | Danita Washington

YAI-Babyblue.jpg

Young and Indigenous presents Danita Washington explaining her experiences throughout her life on being a mother, big sister to her siblings, and also her nieces and nephews. She talks about how it was back in their day compared to how different it is today--so you get to hear a little bit about the way we used to do things. There are many old stories from her time that I love to hear, especially when she talks about my grandparents. Danita has always been a good person in my corner growing up. She is a good auntie and I am thankful for her teachings that she hands down. -- Bella
