The famous country music venue and radio show “The Grand Ole Opry” turns 100 years old today. Grand Ole Opry host Charlie Mattos and country music star Mandy Barnett share some big moments from the institution’s long history. And, the Menominee Indian Tribe of Wisconsin reburied the remains of 67 ancestors that were excavated in the 1960s and held for decades by the Milwaukee Public Museum. The Association on American Indian’s Shannon O’Loughlin — also a member of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma — talks about the decades-long fight for Native American repatriation. David Grignon, a tribal elder and historic preservation officer with the Menominee Tribe of Wisconsin, also joins us.
