We're Still Here with Simon and Julie

We're Still Here with Simon and Julie

Simon and Julie join John for another segment of We’re Still Here. They dig into a disturbing new report revealing that Trump-era officials pushed to remove books on slavery, Native history, and even George Washington from national park gift shops, all in the name of “patriotism.”

Then they turn to Arkansas, where a whites-only settlement is quietly building a “fortress for the white race” under the banner of “returning to the land.” Yes, it’s 2025. No, you didn’t misread that.

But it’s not all grim news: the House has approved $8.4 billion for the Indian Health Service, with advance appropriations that could offer much-needed stability for Native healthcare—if it survives the political storm ahead.

They unpack all of it with humor, fire, and a healthy dose of listener calls.
