    Wednesday, June 12, 2024 – The inevitable and increasing heat and wildfire threat

    Wednesday, June 12, 2024 – The inevitable and increasing heat and wildfire threat

    An early summer heat wave just scorched the Southwest, breaking high temperature records, and another potentially record-breaking weather system is on it’s way. 2023 was the worst year on record for heat-related deaths in Phoenix, Ariz. A 14-year study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) finds Indigenous populations in the U.S. suffer a higher percentage of heat-related deaths than any other population. NASA is just one of the agencies documenting the increasing frequency of high heat and drought, both of which put fire management officials on alert for the potential of another destructive wildfire season. We’ll find out how Native American emergency management and public health officials are gearing up to prepare for potentially deadly weather conditions.

    Tuesday, June 11, 2024 — Indigenous LGBTQ+ and Two-Spirit artists express their pride

    When it’s most relevant, Indigenous art can force people to confront important and tough issues. It’s also a creative window to view the artist’s individuality and identity. We’ll mark that creativity on this Pride Month episode, talking with Indigenous LGBTQ+ and Two-Spirit artists about the intersection of two driving issues of identity that are both a celebration and a source of contention.

    Monday, June 10, 2024 – America’s first universal language

    Monday, June 10, 2024 – America’s first universal language

    At one point in history, the various tribes in the Plains region developed a shared universal language. But it didn't rely on the spoken word. Plains Indian Sign Language (PISL), or Hand Talk, was a complex means of communication that spread over a large swatch of North America. It was a way for deaf people to communicate before the invention of American Sign Language (ASL). Colonial intrusion and assimilation policies caused the number of PISL practitioners to drop off drastically. Now, a handful of PISL speakers are trying to revitalize this unique language.

    Friday, June 7, 2024 – A troubling trend for maternal mental health

    Mental health conditions tops the list of causes for pregnancy-related deaths over a three-year period in a recent study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Calling the problem an “urgent public health crisis”, the Biden Administration is forming a task force to report to Congress about ways to turn the statistics around.
