President Trump’s task force on Missing and Murdered Indigenous People has released its first report. It recommends the creation of a centralized database to track cases of Missing and Murdered Indigenous People, and increased federal funding for local efforts to address the crisis. Plus, our partners speak with the filmmakers behind ‘The Blessing,’ a documentary about a Navajo coal miner struggling with the irreversible destruction of their sacred mountain at the hands of America’s largest coal producer.
