Crazy Horse Memorial Foundation

On today's show...

SDPB's Jordan Rusche brings us a calendar of Pride Month events throughout South Dakota.

Rep. Taylor Rehfeldt joins In the Moment to dive into a crisis. Too many young people in South Dakota are dying by suicide.

She and Lori Walsh explore the suicide prevention resources in the state and the barriers to and stigma behind accessing them.

For three-quarters of a century, chisels and dynamite have been shaping a mountain in the Black Hills. Whitney Rencountre II talks about the history and cultural significance of the Crazy Horse Memorial.

The monument will celebrate its 75th anniversary in early June.

We take a moment for South Dakota Public Broadcasting history.

Plus, Joshua Bennett, Ph.D., returns to the show. The scholar and poet discusses the heat of poetry and the saga of the spoken word.
