The Bridge with Kira featuring Davidica Little Spotted Horse

In the first hour, Kira welcomes musician and Parents’ Advocate, Davidica Littlespottedhorse to the bridge for a discussion of the history and unfair policies that have allowed the government to steal Native children from their families for far too long. In the second hour, Kira welcomes Lakota mother, Veronica Ortega to the bridge to tell her story of how her parental rights were taken from her without due process of law. Veronica has been fighting to get her children back in a rigged system that is awarded more money when adopting out Native children. Veronica is the first Native mother in history to have her Surpeme Court challenge accepted and now needs the best legal minds in Indian Country to help her win her case. Kira will be creating a call to action on The Bridge with Kira Facebook like page.  Please join the call.

The Bridge with Kira Resistance Update 7-15-17 Alisha Vincent

Kira welcomed back Alisha Vincent for a frank and open discussion about the state of water protection. Kira shut down a Nazi and his #FakeHistory, Infiltration was discussed in a way that apparently threatened #TigerSwan because they came after Kira after the show.

Alisha’s recap here:

Kira took a risk and allowed a listener, Justin, to come on the show. He began with some new age bullshit and then launched into some, ALT Right, Nazi, fake history and was promptly shut down.

Alisha and Kira addressed Kyle Thompson’s latest video with Myron Dewey and were of the mindset that there is so much more that needs to occur before either Kyle or his girlfriend, Kourtni have redeemed themselves. We were not as forgiving of him almost getting us all killed. After the show, it was revealed that one of BJ Nastacio’s charges has been dropped. Kyle Thompson promptly took credit for all of them being dropped.

After the show, while Kira was sleeping, a video was posted to Kira’s FaceBook timeline. She did not give any permission for this video of Kourtni Dockter to be posted on her timeline nor did she even know of the video’s existence until she awoke the next morning. The video was promptly deleted and Kourntni was blocked. Contrary to popular belief, this occurance does not indicate that anyone gained access to Kira’s account but that Kourtni and her cohorts have a back door to make it appear as though they have gained access. This tactic is typlical, low level, spy bullshit and is designed to scare. A back door can be opened if someone tags you to one of their posts which did occur. So nice try assholes. Nice touch posting at 11:11.

The Bridge with Kira, Live from Camp White Pine

In a talking circle style interview, Kira talks to Camp White Pine activists: Ellen, Jimmy, Kari, Cass, Dan and Kai. The goal of the show was to give the audience insight into the real motivations of the Camp White Pine activists, in their own words. We got a little philosophical and it was awesome.
