CROW NATION, Montana -- Govinda, who created the online Earthcycles with a traveling live radio bus, is now with Crow activists and setting up a new radio station! Although the Red Cross is still there because of flooding, Native youths at Center Pole are busy creating a new way to broadcast their voices to the world.
Govinda said they are using teepee poles for their first radio transmitter!

"In the midst of Montana’s famous mountain landscapes, lies an untold story of a forgotten community that struggles daily with the burdens of poverty. At The Center Pole, a non-profit organization for youth on the Crow Indian Reservation,  children are empowered to reach beyond that poverty and follow their dreams. Here, children hone their natural creativity and ingenuity through entrepreneurship, academics, volunteering and traditional ways." --Center Pole
