Native America Calling - Thursday, August 14, 2025 – Getting at the truth: Indigenous journalists’ unique role in reporting

News consumers have a constant stream of information at their fingertips, but how reliable is it and how do people check the facts? Indigenous journalists are a means to bring balanced viewpoints to newsrooms that typically have limited interaction with Indigenous populations. As the annual gathering of the Indigenous Journalists Association gets underway in Albuquerque, N.M., we’ll discuss how journalism is changing and how Indigenous journalists are responding to new pressures for transparency, fact-checking, and bias.

GUESTS

Angel Ellis (Muscogee), director of Mvskoke Media and on board of directors for Indigenous Journalists Association and Oklahoma Media Center

Shaun Griswold (Laguna, Jemez and Zuni Pueblo), correspondent at High Country News and Native News Online

Nancy Marie Spears (Cherokee), Indigenous Children and Families Reporter for The Imprint

Hattie Kauffman (Nez Perce), journalist and first Native American to file a report on a national news broadcast

Reset with Sasha-Ann Simons - Illinois Is Helping Black Residents Trace Their Ancestry Back To Africa

A new program is helping Illinoisans of African descent reconnect and reclaim ancestral ties lost due to the transatlantic slave trade.

Now, the Illinois Family Roots Pilot program is offering free DNA testing so people can trace their roots into the past and connect with living relatives. Reset learns more about the state program and hears from two Chicago-area residents who connected after DNA testing showed they were related.
