Native Opinion PODCAST Discusses Trump's Dishonoring The Navajo Code Talkers, and Media Shortcomings

Our friends at NATIVE OPINION, Dr. David GreyOwl and Michael Kickingbear  have a podcast up which includes the insults from President Donald Trump, and the culturally insensitive ruination of an event to honor our Navajo Code Talkers we posted about last week. Included in the discussion:

You Can listen HERE.

Synopsis:
In this episode of Native Opinion, our discussion includes our deconstruction of Trumps most recent insult of Indian country…his use of the word “Pocahontas”.

We fix that by playing what they wouldn’t. We look at the veterans who went to Standing Rock one year later.
