In this episode, I am honored to present a captivating discussion with Raymond (Ray) "Two Hawks" Watson, an esteemed community leader. Hailing from Rhode Island and nurtured by his cherished grandmother, Ray stands as a member of the Narragansett Indian tribe—an ancestral heritage that has profoundly molded his identity and mission. As a tribal leader, community organizer, and advocate, he has devoted his life to preserving his grandmother's memory and realizing her aspirations for him.
In 2006, a pivotal juncture arose that would set Ray on a transformative course. Following his grandmother's passing, he embarked on a profound odyssey of introspection, retracing the threads of their relationship and unearthing the wisdom she had imparted. Her teachings, values, and fervent desire for him to embrace his cultural roots and actively engage with the tribe ignited an inner flame—a flame that would become the propulsive force behind his mission.
In honor of his grandmother's legacy, Ray resolved to immerse himself in his cultural heritage. The outcome? A staggering impact that has empowered him to effect profound change in his community and beyond. Through his unwavering commitment, he has revitalized the tribe's customs, championed their causes, and offered a guiding light for those seeking a connection to their heritage.
Join us as we unravel the threads of his journey—the hurdles he encountered, the triumphs he celebrated, and his vision for the future. Through heartfelt dialogues, anecdotes, and insights, we will discuss how his determination to build a loftier foundation has materialized in a legacy that grows more formidable with each passing day.
