(Riverton, WY) – A new episode of the Indian Relay Podcast is now available, featuring Randy Nagitsy from the Office of Indian Education at Fort Washakie School in a conversation about the return and rebuilding of Five Buffalo Days.
Hosts Ivan Posey and Al Hubbard talk with Nagitsy about the months of planning, partnership, and community support that helped bring the week-long event together, including collaboration with the Wind River Tribal Buffalo Initiative, MMIR 307, school staff, cultural presenters, students, families, and tribal leaders.
The episode highlights the buffalo harvest, MMIW/MMIP walk, powwow, fashion show, fry bread contest, classroom learning, and the Shoshone and Northern Arapaho cultural presence woven throughout the week. More than an event recap, the conversation centers on responsibility, cultural learning, and the “good medicine” that comes when a community shows up for its young people.
