On this special Mother’s Day episode of Urban Rez, hosts Marcus White and Dr. B sit down with renowned Musqueam weavers Deborah and Aleen Sparrow for a powerful conversation on Coast Salish weaving, cultural revitalization, healing, and Indigenous identity. Deborah reflects on her 40-year journey reviving the nearly-lost tradition of Salish weaving after the impacts of colonialism, transforming weaving into both a spiritual practice and a foundation for raising her family in a healthy, culturally grounded home. Aleen shares her own path back to culture; from pursuing a legal career to rediscovering weaving, canoe pulling, and community during COVID-19, while navigating sobriety and an ADHD diagnosis. Together, the mother-daughter duo discuss Vancouver Indigenous Fashion Week, the creation of Salish Blanket Co., and the importance of balancing cultural sharing with protecting sacred teachings. Through fashion, storytelling, and mentorship, Deborah and Aleen reveal how tradition and innovation can work together to inspire healing, pride, and the next generation of Indigenous youth.
