This Friday, catch up on some of the stories we’re following from Indian Country. Meet the Native leaders and educators who want Americans to know about Indian boarding schools; learn how tribal nations in Oklahoma continue to protect themselves against COVID-19; listen to two Navajo broadcasters make history announcing a college football game in the Navajo language, and more in this week’s News You Can Use!
We’re also very sad to share that the Oglala Sioux Tribe announced a quarantine order for all K-12 schools on the Pine Ridge Reservation yesterday. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all its members who are being affected by it right now.
