Ashley Callingbull is the guest for episode 9 of universally judged! She was the first Canadian AND first Indigenous woman to win the title of Mrs. Universe back in 2015. She talks to Siera about the struggles that Indigenous communities face in Canada and how little Canadians know about how Indigenous people were and are treated. She talks about intergenerational trauma within her community, the abuse so many children suffered in Residential School, and how they’re now being treated in foster care. As an Indigenous woman, she also talks about the genocide of the missing and murdered Indigenous Women that plagues the country. Ashley also discusses the racism that she experienced while competing in pageants and as a citizen just going about her day. But she and Siera end the episode talking about Ashely’s mom and how Ashley convinced her to take chances and risks that she never would have before! Plus, her sweet dog, Papa Grigorio, makes a guest appearance.
