Minnesota State Senator Mary Kelly Kunesh talks with me about the road to creating the Office of Missing and Murdered Indigneous Relatives. You don't want to miss it.

A note for sensitive listeners or if you're listening with younger people, there are brief descriptions of violence towards women, in the episode I have noted where they occur and give you a time marker to advance to if desired.

In this episode we also talk about a handful of resources for further information, here are the links:

• Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women Task Force Report
• Office for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives
•  Stolen Sisters: The Story of Two Missing Girls, Their Families & How Canada Has Failed Indigenous Women
• Injustice In Indian Country
• Wind River (film)
• Highway of Tears
• Killers of the Flower Moon

Senator Kunesh also highlighted the efforts of Mysti Babineau, you can find a brief article of her work here from Minnesota Public Radio.
