We're Still Here with Simon and Julie

Simon and Julie went live with John to explore powerful stories from Indian Country. They covered the Miccosukee Tribe’s lawsuit over “Alligator Alcatraz”; reflected on 80 years since the U.S. detonated the first nuclear bomb on stolen Mescalero Apache land; and discussed how Medicaid cuts threaten Native healthcare. They also highlighted the water crisis on reservations, where half of households still lack reliable clean water. Listeners called in to share their stories—one even asked about burning sage (smudging) at an Indian Health Services clinic.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
