Manage episode 347991463 series 3293069
What happens in the US in November? Daylight saving time. Elections and Thanksgiving. And Native American Heritage Month! In today's episode Myzie and Chan discuss the importance of Native American voices and how we can learn more about the people and contributions of those who were here first. There is so much to be thankful for this year and so much work to be done.

- Teton Sioux Tribe
*We will be known forever by the tracks we leave."
- Dakota Tribe
