Description

A bag of cash, a list of jurors hidden in a water bottle and a juror who was followed home: It was all part of an alleged plot to bribe a juror in the Feeding Our Future court case. Five people have now been charged. The Minneapolis Police union contract that would increase the department’s budget by millions gets a public hearing. We heard from the many stakeholders who made their voices heard in a nearly four hour meeting. Plus, we talked to a Dakota writer about what her Two-Spirit identity means to her. We heard a conversation with an author coming to town. She wrote the best-selling book, “Tomorrow, Tomorrow and Tomorrow.”And our summer festival spotlight took us to Akeley for Paul Bunyan Days. Our Minnesota Music Minute was “Banjo Song” by folk singer Nolen Sellwood.
