And later: One set of economic indicators points to a future economic slowdown, and a startup envisions a slow-moving sleeper train between Los Angeles and the Bay Area.

Native America Calling - Tuesday, May 20, 2025 – Arizona tribes fight fast-tracked copper mine plan
The San Carlos Apache Tribe is fighting to stop the planned June 16, 2025 transfer to the sacred Oak Flat land in Arizona to the companies that intend to turn it into a copper mine. There’s a flurry of activity around the ongoing fight over the land, known to the Apache as Chi’chil Biłdagoteel. The Trump Administration announced its intention to rush the land swap involving 2,400 acres of land to hasten the two mile wide open pit mine. A federal judge this month halted the transfer, saying the tribes have a prevailing interest. San Carlos Apache just requested an injunction to stop any movement until the legal issues are settled.
We’ll also get perspectives on what needs to be considered if, as President Donald Trump suggests, the federal government moves ahead with re-opening the prison on Alcatraz Island in California.

Marketplace All-in-One - How a highway in Tulsa displaced and dispossessed Black residents
In yesterday's podcast, we brought you the history of how a white mob devastated Tulsa's Greenwood District during the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre. Afterward, Black residents rebuilt and flourished, but what would come next would largely destroy the neighborhood — and much of its wealth — for good: the construction of the I-244 highway. But first, President Donald Trump is headed to Capitol Hill to get the GOP tax bill over the finish line.
