S2 | E2: Natural Resource Protection

The Wampanoag Tribe relies on the natural resources found on Martha’s Vineyard for sustenance, medicine, and more. In this episode of The Leadership Exchange Podcast you’ll hear from the Tribe’s Director of Natural Resources, Bret Sterns; Chairwoman Cheryl Andrews-Maltias; Tribal member Barbara Gentry; and Tribal Ranger and Keeper of the Gay Head Light, Chris Manning. They’ll discuss the various resources found on the island, such as scallops, herring, and cranberries, and how these resources have changed over time. They’ll also tell us about sustenance rights and describe the programs the Tribe’s “small but mighty” natural resources department has put in place to ensure these rights for future generations. Finally, we’ll end with ways the Tribe is overcoming obstacles to keep its history and culture alive for generations to come.
