Episode Notes A note about this episode: We want to directly acknowledge the sexual harassment record of Sherman Alexie. The episode was recorded prior to us learning about Alexie’s sexual harassment. However we do not want to “gloss over” this fact. We’ve provided some resources to understand the situation, feel free to take the time to use them. In the future, we hope to learn from this and more thoroughly research the topics we choose to speak about. https://www.npr.org/2018/03/05/589909379/i...
