We had the honor of hosting the 23rd Poet Laureate of the United States, Joy Harjo (Muscogee (Creek) Nation) for a poetry reading and interview. She dropped a lot of knowledge bombs, like the one in this clip:

All around campus grow corn stalks like this one. Student Alexis Vigil (Pueblo of Jemez) told us that each one represents a Native kid who suffered or died here and was “never able to return home.” Alexis told Antonia Hylton: “Each corn that grows is a kid that is flourishing.”

Santa Fe Indian School has taken back their school and their curriculum. Once a boarding school that traumatized Native children, it’s now a school that celebrates Indigenous culture, language, and traditions. I hope you’ll watch their story on MSNBC msnbc.com/hallie-jackson…

We are joined by a national treasure today for a hybrid event featuring 23rd U.S. Poet Laureate Joy Harjo (Muscogee Creek Nation). Hearing her poetry and conversation with Graham Lee Brewer (Cherokee Nation) is such a cool way to celebrate 🔥

This article is a great example on how the The New York Times coverage of Indigenous issues doesn’t meet the basic standards of journalism. This article grossly misrepresents what happened in the underlying custody cases and the people behind the lawsuit.
