An exhibit at the Museum of Natural and Cultural History in Eugene, Oreg. assembles works by Native LGBTQ2 artists that express this moment in time.

We’ll check on the status of Native Pride.

Plus, we’ll get career highlights of the late actor Jonathan Joss (Comanche and White Mountain Apache) who died this week.
