In episode five of The Good Oil Podcast, Cam sits down with Dr Sheree Trotter—academic, historian and commentator. With a PhD from the University of Auckland, Sheree, of Te Arawa descent, brings a rare depth of knowledge across Māori, New Zealand and Jewish histories.
Her doctoral research focused on Zionism and she’s the co-founder of the Holocaust and Antisemitism Foundation, Indigenous Embassy Jerusalem, and Indigenous Coalition for Israel. Sheree doesn’t hold back.
Intelligent, principled and unafraid to speak plainly, she offers a clear-eyed take on history, identity and truth-telling.
This is a conversation that challenges assumptions and addresses some of the most complex issues of our time.
Sheree’s articles about settler colonialism:
Settler Colonialism, Indigeneity and Activist Purity Laws
