This evening’s Dancing for Change radio show features nearly all songs by Native Americans, some traditional, some contemporary. I’m part of a spring break mission team heading to Pine Ridge Reservation in early March, and earlier this evening a student and I presented a short talk (with accompanying audio tracks) on Lakota music. So tonight’s show is an expansion on that theme. Native Americans of all tribes have a rich heritage that’s often overlooked or outright suppressed. Here is some of their talent and beauty.\"palatki-672891_960_720\"<\/a><\/p>\n
