On this edition of Your Call, we continue our US at 250: A Native Perspective series with writers Terria Smith and Ursula Pike.
Smith edited and Pike contributed to Know We are Here: Voices of Native California Resistance, a book of essays by California Indian authors who write about how Indigenous communities are resisting the legacies of genocide.
We'll also discuss how they are responding to the erasure of Native voices ahead of US at 250 events and media coverage in California and beyond.
