The legacy of broken treaties,
The legacy of broken treaties, colonialism and Native American genocide are constant themes set to a hip-hop beat in the songs of Sicangu Lakota rapper Frank Waln. Born on the Rosebud Indian Reservation in rural South Dakota, Waln uses music as a way to call out historical wrongs and uplift American indigenous youth, many of whom struggle from the impacts of poverty, violence, suicide and other inter-generational traumas.
In this episode, we'll look at how is music challenging narratives about Native Americans. We'll hear more about the inspiration for Waln's songs and get a first listen to some new music from his forthcoming album.
