Re-Indigenizing Public Lands

Before public lands were even a concept, the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem was, and continues to be, stewarded by Indigenous Peoples. In short, public lands are Native Lands. In today’s world, many current public land management policies exclude or marginalize Indigenous roles and input.

In the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem and beyond, a growing movement is pushing to restore Indigenous connection, stewardship, sovereignty, and sustainable practices rooted in Traditional Ecological Knowledge.

Joining us on the podcast today is an Apsáalooke Tribal member and educational and cultural consultant, Dr. Shane Doyle. Shane is a Montana historian and educator who hails from Crow Agency, Montana. He holds a Master’s in Native American Studies, a Doctorate in Education, Curriculum and Instruction, and completed a post-doctoral appointment in Genetics from the University of Copenhagen, Denmark. Shane has published over a dozen articles about the ancient history, culture, and contemporary experience of the Indigenous people of Montana and continues to work as a researcher and public lands advocate in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. He is the Executive Director of the Native American non-profit group Yellowstone Peoples, whose mission is to hold an annual InterTribal Tipi Village in Yellowstone National Park.

We’ll chat with Shane about how he likes to enjoy Montana’s public lands, how he’d like to see public land co-management done in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, and how we can be better advocates for re-Indigenizing public lands.

The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem is the land of 49+ Indigenous Tribes who maintain current and ancestral connections to the lands, waters, wildlife, plants, and more.
Voices of Greater Yellowstone was created by the Greater Yellowstone Coalition, a conservation nonprofit dedicated to working with people to protect the lands, waters, and wildlife of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, now and for future generations.
