Grounded in Aaron’s experiences growing up with Crow oral traditions, the discussion explores how storytelling serves as a living practice, one that maintains relationships across generations and keeps the past present. Aaron reflects on how memory and identity are carried through stories shared by his grandmothers and community, emphasizing that these narratives are not simply about the past, but are central to cultural continuity and the Crow worldview. The conversation then turns to his role as a Tribal Historic Preservation Officer, where these same values guide how cultural heritage is protected, interpreted, and passed forward. The episode also looks ahead to the upcoming 150th anniversary of the Battle of the Little Bighorn, considering what remembrance, responsibility, and representation mean from a Crow perspective. Together, these themes highlight the importance of Indigenous knowledge, lived experience, and storytelling in shaping both the past and the future.","meta_description":"In this episode of The Great Plains Archaeology Podcast, Carlton is joined by Aaron Brien (Apsáalooke), Tribal Historic Preservation Officer for the Crow…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":2248,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-great-plains-archaeology-podcast-7021441/episodes/carrying-the-stories-preservation-and-responsibility-in-the-crow-nation-with-aaron-brien-ep-39/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-great-plains-archaeology-podcast-7021441/carrying-the-stories-preservation-and-responsibility-in-the-crow-nation-with-aaron-brien-ep-39.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
