Mni Sóta Mak̇oċe (The Land of the Dakota) Part 2: Prairie Stewardship - a podcast by Minnesota Department of Natural Resources

The prairie and indigenous people have persisted through time, and indigenous people’s role in prairie stewardship is intertwined with the survival of prairie on the landscape. Prairie Pod listeners, we’re honored to debut for you part two of our Dakota connections to the prairie series, featuring staff from the four Dakota communities within the borders of Minnesota. These episodes were recorded on November 9, 2022. The second part of this series covers how Dakota people and tribal staff are managing and stewarding the prairie today, and how we can all learn from each other to strengthen our understanding of prairie and the landscape as a whole. If you missed part one, make sure to go back and listen, to learn about Dakota historical and cultural perspectives and connections to the prairie. We hope you enjoy learning during these episodes, just as much as we did while making them.
