Lauren Layfield introduces Pretendians on the podcast recommendation podcast - Your Next Podcast. What do some of the most prominent and successful Indigenous artists, leaders and professors have in common? They aren’t Indigenous.  There are hundreds of cases of Indigenous identity fraud that we know about, and likely thousands that we do not. So why do these so-called “pretendians” do it? How do they pull it off? And what happens when they are exposed?  In each episode of this riveting new podcast series, co-hosts Robert Jago (Kwantlen First Nation and Nooksack Indian Tribe) and Angel Ellis (Muscogee (Creek) Nation) reveal unbelievable stories of audacious fraudsters and investigate the complex phenomenon of Indigenous identity theft. You can follow Pretendians and listen to all of the episodes on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music or wherever you get your podcasts.
