About this listen
Dr. B hosts Lycia Ortega, a Quechan Indian tribe member and communication specialist, on the Urban Rez radio show.

They delve into the challenges faced by Native Americans, including the impact of historical policies like the Indian Removal Act, the lack of basic amenities on reservations, and the importance of sovereignty and cultural values. They emphasize the need for unity, community, and systemic opportunities to address these issues.
