A Vote for Wild North Dakota Places ~ Poet Kevin Zepper ~ Prof. Bo Wood on Voting

Monday, November 5 – The Badlands Conservation Alliance is “a Voice for Wild North Dakota Places.” Laura Anhalt is the Alliance’s wellness coordinator. She visits with John Harris in this excerpt from the Prairie Pulse television show. ~~~ Moorhead State English professor Kevin Zepper has a new book of poetry out titled “Moonman.” We’ll also hear a clip from “Lines and Notes,” a poetry performance that also features pianist Teri Manno. ~~~ Robert Wood is a professor of political science and public administration at UND. He joins us to discuss voting, whether it’s a right, privilege, responsibility, or a synthesis. We’ll also reflect on some of the history, when women, slaves, or those without property were not eligible to participate.
