On This Episode:
- Women of the White Buffalo - Filmmaker/photographer Deborah Anderson discusses her award-winning documentary “Women Of The White Buffalo” that focuses on how the matriarchal society upended by centuries of genocide and colonialism has disenfranchised the Lakota women and simultaneously reinforced their roles as the backbones of their communities and the keepers of their people's ancient wisdom. These are the powerfully rich stories of the brave women and children living in one of the poorest counties in the United States.
- MRS FUN - Keyboardist Connie Grauer discusses the new album TRUTH, by avant-garde jazz duo MRS. FUN. Complex, sophisticated and adventurous, their music is a unique blend of off-center jazz, ultra-funk, spoken word rap, and their own brand of neo-cabaret. Intelligent lyrics, stellar musicianship, and a dynamic stage presence are hallmarks of their music. The MRS. FUN sound is derived from Connie Grauer's funky bass-driven keyboard playing, combined with Kim Zick's skillful in-the-pocket drumming.
