On today's show...
We hear from tribal representatives in their own words.
First, we bring you a snippet of Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribal Vice President Cyndi Allen-Weddell’s 2024 State of the Tribes address. Then, we hear from Crow Creek Tribal Chairman Peter Lengkeek, who gave the 2023 address.
There are a few monumental cases before the U.S. Supreme Court. Mike Thompson from the University of Sioux Falls helps us make sense of these cases and their potential impacts.
Tim Schut shares a bit of his journey with us. Watch the full documentary "Speechless: The Tim Schut Story" here.
We learn about the history and legacy of 52 years of Wacipi events at the University of South Dakota. John Little, Ph.D., director of Native recruitment and alumni engagement, takes us into a time machine to understand the significance of these cultural celebrations.
Plus, Fresh Tracks brings us a few artists and new releases that you may have overlooked in 2023.
