The Rez We Live On launched this week is worth browsing.
Put together by CSKT it's an informational site that aims to dispel around 10 misconceptions about life on the reservation, and about tribal members.
Questions asked by "characters" on the site cover topics from Tribal justice to how members pay for college and who is employed by CSKT on the Flathead Reservation.
CSKT Rob McDonald told me yesterday that the site is going to help stop misinformation from continuing to spread. He said some of the inspiration for the site came from a young, lifelong Polson resident who had never learned specifics about the reservation growing up.
I learned a lot from just 10 minutes clicking around the site. It's entertaining, with characters from every walk of life answer the questions. And 'movie" help fill in the gaps.
Look for more in the Sept. 17 issue of the Leader.
