Question 50 // Whatever Happened To That Minneapolis Homeless Encampment? (feat. Patina Park)

Patina Park is the Chair of the Metro Urban Indian Directors and executive director of the Minnesota Indian Women’s Resource Center.

Whatever happened to that Minneapolis homeless encampment (or “Tent City” as it became known) before it’s population seemingly disappeared overnight? Is it Indian… Native American… First Nationals… what’s the proper term nowadays? Speaking of modern times, I keep seeing blond girls showing up to music festivals wearing traditional headdresses and bikinis, what’s the Native American society feel about that?
This week, Rob sits down with Patina Park over coffee to talk about these thing and much, much more in possibly the most important conversation he’s had yet.
Recording Location: Pow Wow Grounds Coffee, Minneapolis MN
