Toksa Hour

Toksa Hour was born as a Facebook livestream on September 20, 2020, and was founded on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in the Porcupine District.

Hosted by Maggie Ross, an enrolled member of the Oglala Sioux Tribe, Toksa Hour explores the stories behind the stories through Indigenous perspectives. We examine history, current events, education, culture, sovereignty, and the narratives that shape our understanding of the world.

Topics include politics, education, treaty rights, land and water issues, constitutional reform, child welfare, healing, mindfulness, art, music, community development, and other issues important to Native communities.

We ask difficult questions, challenge assumptions, and encourage thoughtful dialogue while honoring Indigenous voices, experiences, and knowledge.

We don't tell you what to think. We invite you to think.

Rabbit holes lead to questions. Questions lead to understanding.
