My Place, My Sovereignty
Episode 108
Thursday, 19 February, 2026
This is the third episode. The last in a three-part series. My Place, My Sovereignty. Recorded at the Eco Nomic Futures Summit. A gathering about systems—but really about people. About land. About new economies. I'm Tate Chamberlin. In this episode, I'm joined by Ruben Hernandes and Miles Richardson. The conversation starts with a simple idea that turns out not to be simple at all: knowing where you come from. For some people, lineage is clear. Stories passed down. Names remembered. Teachings held—who we are, what we stand for, where we belong. That clarity is a kind of privilege. From there, the story widens. We talk about building Indigenous economies—not as theory, but as relationship. To people. To place. To the earth itself. There's talk of sovereignty. Of sovereign wealth. Because economic activity matters. We all need it. But the system we're living inside now is built on something else—monetary capital. Scarcity. The idea that there's never enough. What Indigenous communities offer is a different application altogether. An economy rooted in reciprocity. In looking after each other. In the understanding that we're all in this together. And that idea scales up—to something much bigger. A world sense. A human challenge. Because sovereignty, in the end, isn't just about control. It's about responsibility. Stay with us.
