“INJUSTICE ANYWHERE
IS INJUSTICE EVERYWHERE.”
I had said I would introduce a Native American, or better said, indigenous co-host to you in my Boldly Feminine introduction. I would like to remind those listening that ninety percent of the ecological biodiversity of the planet is being safeguarded by the small, five percent of indigenous peoples that inhabit our planet. These include the tribes of the Savannah in Africa, such as the Masai, the Maori of Australia, the Inuit of Alaska, the Aymara of Peru, the Cabecar of the Amazon, the Asmat of New Guinea and many many more. In spite of their devotion to preserve the divergent species that co-habitate this small blue planet we all share - seventy percent of animal species have disappeared since 1970. The protective, respectful indigenous culture of foresight that coexists by planning seven generations into the future has been obliterated by consumerism, the consequences of destructive capitalism, mass consumption and the normalization of immediate gratification.
It is my pleasure to introduce to you today Tanori, a wonderful human of the Yaqui tribe. The Yaqui are an UTO-AZTECAN speaking indigenous people, widespread in the americas but who principally inhabit the western hemisphere of North America, from lower Canada to the farthest reaches of the Yucatan in Mexico.
The Pasqua Yaqui tribe based in Tucson, Arizona is the ONLY federally recognized Yaqui tribe in the United States though, as mentioned, their people are spread widely across a vast area of the American.
There was a period of armed conflict that began in 1533 that extended up until 1929 called the Yaqui Wars, fought between New Spain, its successor the Mexican state, and the indigenous Yaqui Indians. Over the course of nearly 400 (FOUR HUNDRED) years, massacre after massacre was brought repeatedly against the Yaqui by either the Spanish or the Mexicans in an attempt that failed at complete genocide, but forced the deportation of Yaquis into slavery as far as the last reaches of the Yucatan peninsula.
As you can tell with Tanori, the Yaqui are historically a very tall people in stature. Due to their physical strength, they were relentless in the defense of their land, peoples and customs for century upon century and to this day have settlements high in the Sonoran mountains of Mexico, virtually unvisited by outsiders where they keep to themselves. These factors have been instrumental in preserving their language, customs and culture over hundreds of years to the present day.
I’m going to have Tanori join in now and it’s very helpful that he has studied his culture as part of his university education. I also wanted to invite him speak of his experiences being a Yaqui born on lands that his ancestors inhabited and governed for millennia, but to which he actually, today, has no rights. I had questions about passports, laws, governance, law enforcement, tribal mores, American norms and so many factors that affected him personally as well as disaffected him socially.
So as per my podcast with Jane Elliott, the diversity educator par none, let’s re-iterate the golden rule: “Race is a concept and species is a fact.“ We as a human species all began our journey to populate the planet from the southernmost tip of Africa, almost two million years ago, and today have all been mostly subjugated to white man’s rule across the planet.
So, Tanori, please share what it meant to grow up Yaqui in South Los Angeles, Arizona, Sonora and where, if ever, you felt you belonged, since these cities and places which were your tribal home by right now had geographical and political demarcations

Imperial Japanese Navy pilots were an elite corps. They lead the world in developing naval aviation between the First and Second World Wars. Although their equipment was modern and tactics were cutting edge, their values and collective identity were based in something much older. They were the modern incarnation of Japan’s ancient warrior caste, the Samurai, and adhered to the warrior code of bushido. Saburo Sakai was one of them. He fought throughout the war, became a leading ace, and was one of the very few who survived to write his story.
It is often said that General Douglas MacArthur didn’t have a staff, he had a court. While there were certainly a few courtiers on his staff, there were also some incredibly gifted men around him – men whose talents helped make MacArthur’s vision for the war in the Pacific a success during World War II, and men whose talents might have led to a different Korean War. General Walter Krueger was one of these men. He is somewhat of an enigma to many people today because he rarely appeared in the communiques coming out of the Pacific during the war and was seemingly uninterested in publicity or politics. MacArthur later compared him to Stonewall Jackson, but MacArthur biographer D. Clayton James compared him to George McClellan. He is often referred to as steady, methodical, and prudent – so much so that he was called “Molasses in January,” – and yet Douglas Southall Freeman considered him one of the greatest American soldiers in history and capable of directing all parts of a campaign. So who was Krueger? How valuable was he to MacArthur? What was their working relationship like?
MacArthur Memorial historians Jim Zobel and Amanda Williams recently sat down to discuss and evaluate the WWII partnership between the two men.

Michael C. Rockefeller went missing in November of 1961 while travelling in Western Netherlands New Guinea. There have been many stories about what happened to Michael, such as he drowned, that he was eaten by predators, that he was rescued and held captive by tribespeople or that he was eaten by cannibals. However, reported sightings and recently discovered footage from 1969 of a tall, thin, white man within a group of 800+ tribesmen may hold the key to what really happened to Rockefeller. Join us as we delve into the story of Michael C. Rockefeller and his mysterious disappearance.
Support the showSeventy thousand years ago, humans migrated on foot across the ancient continent of Sahul — the landmass that has since split up into Australia and New Guinea. Mapping the journeys of these ancient voyagers is no small task: previous efforts to understand prehistoric migrations relied on coarse estimates based on genomic studies or on spotty records of recovered artifacts.
Now, progress in the fields of geographic information system mapping and agent-based modeling can help archaeologists run massive simulations that explore all likely paths across a landscape, bridging the view from orbit with thoughtful models of prehistoric peoples and how they moved through space.
The new research expands our scientific understanding of how ritual and story encode vital geographic features, and sheds light on how our modern world is the product of deep, ancient forces.
Agent-based modeling in archaeology can also help save lives by improving science communication, empowering stakeholders in cultural resource management, and facilitating better international planning and coordination as the climate crisis looms…
Welcome to COMPLEXITY, the official podcast of the Santa Fe Institute. I’m your host, Michael Garfield, and every other week we’ll bring you with us for far-ranging conversations with our worldwide network of rigorous researchers developing new frameworks to explain the deepest mysteries of the universe.
This week we talk with Stefani Crabtree, SFI Fellow and Assistant Professor in Socio-Environmental Modeling at Utah State University, and Devin White, R&D Manager for Autonomous Sensing & Perception at Sandia National Laboratories. Stefani and Devin are the first two authors on the recent Nature Human Behaviour paper, Landscape rules predict optimal superhighways for the first peopling of Sahul, a project at the bleeding edge of agent-based modeling for archaeology that simulated over 125 billion potential ancient migratory routes.
In our conversation, we discuss bringing advanced technologies to bear on research into human prehistory; the ways humans make sense of space; how our minds and landscapes inform each other; and the ways agent-based modeling might help avert disaster for the sedentary populations of our century.
