Carol Juneau (Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara Nation) helped build and shape the foundation of what is now the Black Feet Community College in the late 1970s. Her educational work led her to advocacy and elected office as she served 12 years in the Montana legislature. Juneau is one of six Native leaders in this year’s class of National Native American Hall of Fame inductees.
In this program, we’ll learn more about Juneau and other Native legends including Dwight Birdwell (Cherokee), an honored marine veteran who’s about to mark his 50th year practicing law.
