One Feather Two Pens: Episode 10 - Listen and Learn with Indigenous Data

About this episode

The episode features an interview with Ja'Elle Leite discussing the importance of engaging Indigenous communities in data management.

We've got a fascinating and important episode for you today. Our guest is Ja'Elle Leite, CEO of Ultralogix Inc., who is a veteran of data management.

Ja'Elle provides a wealth of experience and insight about what it means to interact with Indigenous data. One of her many important points is that Indigenous data tells stories on its own terms. The question is whether or not we are willing to listen. In this case, she doesn't mean through data visualization tools.
