The Lewis & Clark expedition told through the eyes of Sacajawea

On today's show...

A new cello and bow acquisition by the National Music Museum in Vermillion will be heard — not just seen. We talk with the curator of stringed instruments and the collection's appraiser about the history and art of these instruments.

As syphilis cases continue to rise throughout South Dakota, we talk with an expert at the Department of Health. We ask about the communities getting hit the worst and who should get screened.

Jennifer Rollins returns to the program, now as part of the Ms. Veteran America court. She discusses what it's like to be a woman in the military and the power of veterans helping veterans.

Plus, we re-examine the stories typically told about Lewis and Clark expedition.

Debra Magpie Earling is the author of the novel "The Lost Journals of Sacajawea." She anchors her retelling on Sacajawea's perspective and works to reprocess the violence the young girl endured.
