About this listen
What actually makes a tribe a government, and why does that distinction matter?
This first episode lays the foundation for the entire series. It explains what defines a sovereign Tribal Nation and why tribes are governments, not cultural groups or nonprofits. We break down core elements like citizenship, governance, continuity, and political authority, and explain how these differ from nonprofit organizations, even when nonprofits use Indigenous language or imagery.
Understanding this distinction is essential for recognizing legitimate tribal authority, avoiding misinformation, and supporting Indigenous sovereignty responsibly.
