What's Next? Native American Heritage Month with Samantha Nephew

Originally posted here by reporter Ryan Zunner of WBFO

On today’s show, we turn our focus to Native American Heritage Month. We welcome Samantha Nephew, a member of the Seneca Nation and a communications specialist at the Buffalo Center for Health Equity, and Melissa Leonard, a Tonawanda Band of Senecas descendant and an educator and advocate for the Seneca people. The two join WBFO Indigenous Beat Reporter Ryan Zunner to discuss a recent Haudenosaunee flag raising in Buffalo, Native American boarding schools, and how Native people are represented throughout history and media.
