Native Lights Podcast: Where Indigenous Voices Shine is incredibly popular and generating a strong following. KKWE is going to partner with Ampers to capitalize on the popularity by teaming up to bring the Native Lights Podcast team to the KKWE listening area. KKWE will host and help to promote Native Lights Live. The partnership for this program will help the Minnesota Native News production team brings out even more of the Native narratives, missing from the typical media landscape. The producers will focus on real people and their real stories as they tell them, and shine the light on Indigenous voices expressing their own experiences, touching on a wide-range of issues and perspectives. Listeners will hear from Native American people living in Minnesota, sharing first-hand stories and experiences covering a wide range of cultural and historical topics.
