In this episode of Native Opinion, Cohosts David Greyowl (Echota Cherokee) and Michael Kickingbear (Mashantucket Pequot) review a story on the the effects of climate change (not created by behaviors of Indigenous peoples) which has now created a restriction on how many Salmon Indigenous people of Alaska (and other communities) can "take."

In another story, Water shortages due to droughts continue to have devastating effects on Indigenous communities in the west. The Federal government is expected to declare a water shortage in the lower basin of the Colorado River by 2022. This restriction is likely to hit indigenous communities particularly hard, as they have struggled to get their legal share of Colorado River water for years—even when those waters have been abundant. Why should our communities bear even more restrictions over an issue which we did not create?

Also, a first look at Congressional candidate, and North Carolina Lumbee Indian tribal citizen, Charles Graham. What are his priorities for Indian country should he be successful in his Candidacy?
