Description

Heebee/Tous and Huhk! Welcome to Indian Relay, a podcast where we bring the people and stories of the Wind River Indian Reservation to the forefront. Located in central Wyoming, the Wind River Indian Reservation is home to the Eastern Shoshone and Northern Arapaho people. We are two nations and one community. On each episode, hosts CooXooEii Black (Northern Arapaho) and Ivan Posey (Northern Arapaho, Eastern Shoshone, Cheyenne), will be hosting community members from different fields to give their unique perspectives on the beauty and challenges we come across on the reservation.

Good Medicine: Randy Nagitsy on Five Buffalo Days, Culture, and Community Responsibility
2026/05/22
On this episode of the Indian Relay Podcast, hosts Ivan Posey and Al Hubbard welcome Randy Nagitsy from the Office of Indian Education at Fort Washakie School for a conversation about the return and rebuilding of Five Buffalo Days — Manigit Bojandave. Randy shares how the week-long event came together through months of planning, collaboration, and community support, including partnerships with the Wind River Tribal Buffalo Initiative, MMIR 307, school staff, cultural presenters, students, families, and tribal leaders. The discussion covers the buffalo harvest, the MMIW/MMIP walk, powwow, fashion show, fry bread contest, classroom learning, Shoshone and Northern Arapaho cultural presence, and the importance of giving students memories and teachings they can carry forward. At its heart, this episode is about responsibility, collaboration, cultural learning, and the good medicine that comes when students, families, educators, and community members show up for one another.

Through their stories, Krystal and Donald remind us that cultural preservation isn’t about relics of the past — it’s about living identity, ongoing ceremony, and a responsibility to future generations.
