Today we start with two more excerpts from “Standing Rock and the Media,” the symposium that took place last week at UND that examined media coverage of the protests over the DAPL Pipeline. One of the presentations was titled "Challenges of Communicating the Government's Story," which featured Nicole Willis, a consultant assisting the Standing Rock Tribe, and Scott Davis, the executive director of the state’s Indian Affairs Commission, who job it was to serve as Governor Dalrymple’s representative. These are edited excerpts, you can hear their entire remarks, and other sessions from the symposium HERE. ~~~ Part two of Harvest Public Media’s series on SNAP benefits examines food aid health impacts people with mental disabilities. ~~~ Author and historian Ames Sheldon joins us to talk about the roles women played on the Western Front during World War I. “The Female Experience on the Western Front” will be held at the Hjemkomst Center on Tuesday, April 24, from 6:00PM to 7:30PM. The lecture is offered in conjunction with HCSCC’s current local exhibition, War, Flu, & Fear: World War I and Clay County.
