On today's show

We spend the hour at the intersection of the attempted termination of indigenous people and why voting matters today.

Coming up this hour, a nationwide civic and electoral participation initiative brought award-winning and bestselling author Louise Erdrich into South Dakota living rooms this year. This conversation was brought to you in a virtual gathering room by the South Dakota Humanities Council and South Dakota Public Broadcasting. We're going to hear that conversation in full and ask Louise Erdrich about her book "The Nightwatchman."
