What is lost when a whole culture disappears? Award-winning journalist Doug Bock Clark has written an epic book about the Lamalerans, a tribe that lives on a remote, eastern Indonesian island. For half a millennium, they have fed themselves by hunting sperm whales, using small, handmade boats and handmade harpoons. And until this day, this is the way they hunt and live. But how much longer? How does an endangered tribe face the challenge to navigate between ancient traditions and modern civilization?This is the story of Doug Bock Clarks bestselling book “The Last Whalers” – and it is what this episode is about.You want to support Unfolding Maps?

#10: The Last Whalers – with Doug Bock Clark

In this episode of The WildFed Podcast, Daniel talks with award-winning journalist and author of The Last Whalers, Doug Bock Clark. Doug spent three years living in Indonesia with indigenous subsistence whalers — a people-group known as the Lamalerans — and recounts everything from his first-hand accounts of being on whale hunts to the experience living with hunter-gatherers. This story is powerful, gripping, poignant, and especially interesting and inspiring for modern subsistence hunter-gatherers. We'd love to hear what you think and feel about it!

Living with Indigenous Whalers with Doug Bock Clark — WildFed Podcast #009

Doug Bock Clark has written for GQ, Wired, and The New Yorker. His new book is The Last Whalers: Three Years in the Far Pacific with a Courageous Tribe and a Vanishing Way of Life.“I think for me the answer has always been you just find the people. You just listen to their stories. I think we're all microcosms, right? We're all fractals of the bigger world. Whether it's my own life or your life or the Lamalerans or other people I've encountered reporting. I think one of the things I'm constantly aware of is how these sort of greater world historical forces are working on us and shaping our lives. For more people than most people would assume, if you just followed their life and looked at it in the particulars but also in the broader circumstances, you could probably draw larger themes from them and their experiences. I never had any worries about whether I could expand the Lamaleran story. It was always just about getting those specific stories right, and I knew the rest of it would come.”Thanks to MailChimp, Squarespace,  and Pitt Writers for sponsoring this week's episode.The Longform Podcast Live: The Mastermind book release party with special guests@DougBockClarkClark on Longform[1:10] "The Untold Story of Otto Warmbier, American Hostage" (GQ • Jul 2018)[1:20] "The Untold Story of Kim Jong-nam’s Assassination" (GQ • Sep 2018)[2:10] The Last Whalers: Three Years in the Far Pacific with a Courageous Tribe and a Vanishing Way of Life (Little, Brown and Company • 2019)[2:10] "The Whalers' Odyssey" (The Atavist Magazine • Nov 2018)[2:20] The Mastermind: Drugs.
