Episode 14: Poet and writer Kaitlin Curtice, author of Native

A conversation with author Kaitlin Curtice about poetry, women as water protectors, baptism, land acknowledgments, and more  

Welcome to Madang. 

Madang is the outdoor living room of the world. Here, we invite you to sit and tune into unreserved, remarkable conversations with renowned authors, leaders, public figures, and scholars on religion, culture, and everything in between.

Here in the 14th episode of Madang, I converse with poet, author, and public speaker Kaitlin Curtice about her latest book, Native: Identity, Belonging, and Rediscovering God. An enrolled citizen of the Potawatomi Nation who was raised in the Christian faith, Kaitlin writes about intersections between Indigenous spirituality, faith in everyday life, and decolonization within the church. Native is about identity, soul-searching, and the never-ending journey of finding ourselves and finding God. In this episode of Madang, I talk with Kaitlin about poetry, women as water protectors, baptism, spiritual places, community, land acknowledgments, White supremacy, language, and so much more.
