Today, we celebrate Indigenous Peoples’ Day, to honor the first peoples of this land, celebrate their culture, and tell the real story behind America’s Best Idea. It's a story of connection and resilience.

First, we’ll hear a historical critique of the establishment of the NPS, including the painful reality of tribal displacement and the legacy of settler colonialism. Then, our Indigenous guests share their personal definitions of Indigenous Peoples' Day. Join us for a powerful celebration of Native cultures—their resilience, survival, and continued resistance against erasure.
