For episode 16, we welcomed renowned journalist Mark Trahant to the studio for a conversation about his storied career, from a tribal high school basketball radio announcer to interviewing a President of the United States. Mark is currently Editor-at-Large at Indian Country Today, and over his five-decade career he has worked across both Native and mainstream media, and even had stints in government and academia.
We hope you enjoy the discussion and learn about the future of journalism, and what to expect from a new administration taking over in Washington. Mark is also working on a new book about Native women leaders in the 20th Century.
