Pacing Dakota ~ Made in North Dakota ~ A Cup of Christmas Tea

The holidays are a time of homecoming. We celebrate North Dakota's offerings this Christmas Eve with a look at the history, the landscape, and one of its favorite sons. We start with historian Tom Isern, reairing a conversation from August about his latest book, Pacing Dakota. ~~~ From the Badlands, to long stretches of highway, the landscape has a lot to say if you're willing to listen. We revisit a conversation from March with Diego Rodriguez and Matthew Lorenz. These UND students collaborated on a music project called Made in North Dakota. ~~~ Boyd Christensen is a familiar face and voice to many North Dakotas. The late broadcaster worked across the state and today we share him reading the famous poem "A Cup of Christmas Tea."
