In November, SDPB airs multiple programs commemorating Veterans Day, including Debt of Honor: Disabled Veterans in America and Iwo Jima: From Combat to Comrades. (See page 17 for a full listing of Veterans Day programming.) Stories of war and service have existed as long as conflict itself. Psychiatrist Dr. Jonathan Shay, who has tracked parallels in the portrayals of conflict and homecoming between Vietnam veterans and Homer’s Illiad and Odyssey, suggests the earliest written reference to PTSD appeared in Henry IV. In his work with veterans, Shay has determined story-sharing is essential to validating the experiences of those who have endured the extremes of war and peacekeeping. “Any blow in life will have longer-lasting and more serious consequences if there is no opportunity to communalize it,” Shays says in his book Achilles in Vietnam: Combat Trauma and the Undoing of Character. “This means some form of social ceremony and

informal telling of the story with feeling to socially-connected others who do not let the survivor go through it alone.”

Ron Capps, a veteran of five wars and Foreign Service Officer in conflicts from Kosovo to Darfur, suffered the sleep disturbances and night sweats Shakespeare referenced 400 years ago. Capps’s spirit had endured “moral injury” – Shaw’s term for an extreme life-experience that transgresses moral beliefs – and in many ways was still at war. According to Capps, he boosted the effects of drug and talk therapy with a creative outlet. “I started suffering from what my doctors started calling PTSD because my brain could not process all the things I’d seen and all the things that I’d not been able to do,” says Capps. “I found that by writing these things down, by taking control of them myself, I started to improve.” Capps went on to produce a candid military memoir and also founded the non-profit Veterans Writing Project.

It is not news that soldiers have

stories to tell. Increasingly apparent is that sharing these stories is a powerful means by which veterans work through experiences of war, service, and homecoming. In South Dakota, veterans’ writing and reading groups formalize the act of storytelling already typical to military culture. Lori Walsh was a U.S. Marine for six years and co-facilitates a Veterans Writing Group in Sioux Falls. With support from the South Dakota Humanities Council, Walsh leads veterans of wars from Vietnam to Afghanistan through writing workshops. “Frankly, when you’re in the military, you share stories,” says Walsh. “You spend so much time together, away from entertainment, newspapers, computers. We’re doing what military people have done forever, which is connecting over those stories.” Attendees range from a published poet to a veteran who audio-records his experiences to a participant who is a spouse, daughter, and sister to service members. Walsh says multiple perspectives enhance the workshops and are representative

of military life. “Not every military experience is combat-related,” says Walsh. The workshops emphasize process over product. Reading and publications may be in the future, but for now Walsh counts connectedness through story-swapping as success. “We do a lot of telling each other stories, which is a very legitimate pre-writing activity and a very legitimate end to itself,” says Walsh. “One of the hardest things to do is to get people to share their work and build the confidence that it takes for them to understand they have something to say.”

Amber Jensen who facilitates SDSU’s Veterans Writing Workshop concurs. “The success of the group is evident in the stories that originate from it,” says Jensen. “Really that is why we formed the group—to give people an opportunity to share their military stories and to make sure they know that we value those stories.”

Jill Baker, a four-year Army veteran, belongs to a Sioux Falls Women Veterans Book Club which reads books written by soldiers, including Phil Klay’s Redeployment, Lynda Van Devanter’s Home Before Morning: The Story of an Army Nurse in Vietnam and Love My Rifle More Than You: Young and Female in the U.S. Army by Kayla Williams. Baker says she enjoys the company of the book club but has difficulty reading the books. “I was surprised how quickly my emotions would surface again.” Baker is slowly building confidence to share the poetic reflections she has written about military service, motherhood, and loss as well as a mini-autobiography about military sexual trauma. But she believes the process is restorative and, when shared, can serve to educate civilian populations. “I think veterans should first and foremost write about their experiences for themselves,” says Baker. “Those who have served in the military lifestyle can see a disconnect or intuitively feel the vicious cycle of denial the world is stuck in. Life just looks different once you’ve immersed yourself in the hardship and rewards of what it takes to protect a nation.”

Capps agrees story-telling should serve to bridge the divide between

the civilian and military populations. “I think it’s critically important,” says Capps. “Particularly for the last two wars, we’ve had less than 1% of Americans take part. That’s the smallest percentage in American history.” Capps cites the significance of storytelling when the Greeks returned from Troy. “Greek culture demanded that each soldier stand in front of his neighbors and tell what happened. The civilian population sent them to war. They returned and said, ‘this is what it was like for us.’”

Gordon Richard was an Officer in the U.S. Army Nurse Corps in Vietnam and is currently the Spink County Veteran Service Officer (VSO) and President of the South Dakota VSO Association. Richard cites Last Days in Vietnam for “putting the Vietnam War in perspective. It helps the general populace to have a greater understanding of what military people experience. We are too quick to send our young people to war. [These programs] make me more aware of the hurt that is within veterans and

make me, as a VSO, more sensitive and potentially aware of underlying issues veterans face. This would include their spouses and family as well. Telling one’s story is a good thing to do. You hear others’ stories and learn that you are not the only one.”

The fellas from Rock Garden Tour go for a hayride on the Bernie and Myrna Hunhoff farm during Soul Butter & Hogwash: A Fancy Barn Tour. In August 2015, Flowerman (Ted Heeren), Oil Can (Tom Hurlbert) and the Family Band (Jim Groth and Christopher & Leo Vondracek) filmed their gardening and music show in front of packed houses live from the Hunhoff and Dennis & Linda Daugaard barns in eastern South Dakota. Joined by News from Pierre and musical guests Jami Lynn and Pleasure Horse.SDPB1: Saturday, Nov. 14 following Class 11AAA Football Championships

(continued on page 14)


In November, SDPB TV’s newsfeature magazine Dakota Life explores gardening and local food production in South Dakota.

The program travels to the 30-acre Eden Valley Apple Orchard and Farm near Elk Point, SD. Eden Valley produces a variety of fruit but has the perfect growing conditions for Aronia fruit. Familiar to South Dakotans as chokeberries, Aronia is emerging as a superfood in juices and supplements thanks to its high antioxidant levels. Join us to learn more about a berry once used by Native Americans and Lewis and Clark.

Next, Dakota Life goes to Heikes

Family Farm in Vermillion, where Sam Heikes has returned to his roots – literally—farming the ground that has been in his family since 1946. His farm is a part of a movement toward Community Supported Agriculture (CSA), in which people buy shares and receive weekly disbursements of fresh fruits and vegetables. Heikes’s non-chemical, all-natural practices are very popular with his share owners. The show will feature a similar program in Brookings that is run in conjunction with SDSU.

Dakota Life visits farmers markets in South Dakota and discusses their

popularity with customers as well as why it’s important to people to know where their food comes from.

And the program features the making of jalapeño jelly and garlic pesto at Deuel Community Kitchen, a food-processing facility open to producers and packagers of specialty foods who need regulated facilities to produce their unique culinary items.

Dakota Life airs several times throughout November to provide lots of chances to tune in. Past programs are available on demand at SDPB.org/DakotaLife.

Two ring-tailed lemurs in an embrace. Animals dance, sing, flirt, and compete with everything they’ve got to find and secure a mate. The bonds they share as a couple are what enable the next generation to survive. But is it love? Nature: Love in the Animal Kingdom takes a delightful, provocative look at the love life of animals. We see the feminine wiles of a young gorilla, the search for Mr. Right among a thousand flamingos, the open “marriages” of blue-footed boobies, the soap opera arrangements of gibbons, and all the subtle, outrageous, romantic antics that go into finding a partner. These are love stories all right, as various and intriguing as the lovers themselves.SDPB1: Sunday, Nov. 29, 6pm (5 MT) & 7pm (6 MT) Wednesday, Nov. 25, 7pm (6 MT)SDPB2: Sunday, Nov. 29, 7pm (6 MT) P

Meet Fred, a house cat who dreams of exploring the outdoors. After Fred’s family leaves the house each day, Fred transforms into Nature Cat, “backyard explorer extraordinaire.” SDPB debuts the new half-hour animated series from PBS KIDS on SDPB1 on Wednesday, November 25 at 6:50 am (5:50 MT) and again at 2:50pm (1:50 MT).

Co-created by brothers David Rudman (Sesame Street, The Muppets) and Adam Rudman (Tom & Jerry, Sesame Street, Cyberchase), Nature Cat is designed for kids ages 3-8 and intended to inspire viewers to get outdoors and develop connections with the natural world.

Like many of today’s kids, Nature Cat is eager and enthusiastic about outside activities, but is at times intimidated by them. With the help of his animal friends, Nature Cat embarks on action-packed adventures that include exciting missions full of nature investigation, “aha” discovery moments and humor, all while inspiring children to go outside and “play the show.”

In other children’s programming news, Sesame Street changes to a half-hour program format beginning Monday, November 16 at 12pm/11am MT. We say goodbye to Angelina Ballerina, Maya & Miguel, and Word World and welcome:

Signing Time: Emmy-nominated host Rachel Coleman uses music, movement, and American Sign Language to educate children of all

ages and abilities. Aimed toward kids ages 3-8.

Thomas Edison’s Secret Lab: A young genius and her science club move into Edison’s secret lab in this wacky world of discovery for kids ages 5-8.

In November, SDPB airs Rising Voices/Hótȟaŋiŋpi, a documentary about the preservation and revitalization efforts of the Lakota language occurring throughout the Lakota nation. The threat of extinction looms for the Siouan language—only 3% of the Lakota nation’s 170,000 tribal members speak Lakota and the average age of native speakers is 70. The film depicts the work of Lakota and non-Indian language scholars and activists to save and modernize one of the largest Native American language communities in the United States.

Recent efforts include the first full-immersion early childhood daycare in Oglala, SD, Lakota summer institutes, an online version and app for the New Lakota Dictionary (NLD), and an online language forum that attracts learners from around the world.

Ben Black Bear (Sicangu) grew up speaking Lakota and is a central figure in the movement to preserve and grow the language. The founder of Lakota Studies at Sinte Gleska University, Black Bear directs Lakota

Studies at St. Francis Mission School and is on the board of the Lakota Language Consortium (LLC), which publishes the NLD as well as Lakota language textbooks and materials. He says the efforts of the LLC are two-pronged: first, to educate and train speakers of Lakota so they may teach the language and produce curricular materials; and, second, to teach reading and writing skills to anyone with a desire to learn Lakota. “We’re trying to revive a language and we have to understand that language in order to be used today has to change,” says Black Bear. “The speed at which it changes and adjusts itself to the current time we live in is helped by people from the outside who learn the language.”

Because new vocabulary is essential to a language’s survival, Black Bear oversees Lakota neologism development for the NLD. He and a group of 8-12 fluent speakers gather to create and vote new words into standard usage. “It’s a lot of hard work. We have to be careful about not creating an artificial

language. We have to maintain the identity and character of the language.” New words must be rooted in Lakota, but direct English translations can be tricky due to

Lakota’s disruption as a mother tongue and sporadic development as a written language. Historically, Lakota was an oral language until the mid-1800’s when Catholic missionaries developed a phonetic writing system and adopted Lakota for use in parish societies which Black Bear says were patterned after pre-reservation warrior society. The Indian Reorganization Act of 1934 placed emphasis on reclaiming Lakota language and culture and the 1970s also brought a resurgence. But widespread use of Lakota waned as speakers, according to Black Bear, died, left the Church, or became disassociated from Lakota identity.

Bernadine Little Thunder’s first language was Lakota; she didn’t speak English fluently until first grade. A certified Lakota language teacher and advocate, Little Thunder helped record the audio-version of the recently updated NLD and also stars as the voice of Sister Bear in Lakota Berenstain Bears (Black Bear is Papa Bear.) Currently she uses her bilingual skills in the Land Buy-Back Program to do outreach with elders who prefer to conduct business in Lakota. Little Thunder is passionate about language as an expression of identity. “Lakota gives me a sense of who I am,” says Little Thunder. “If we have our language it makes us whole.” She’s encouraged by the amount of texts and social media posts she sees written by young people in Lakota, a language she finds more precise and meaningful than English. “Our language is so descriptive and expressive,” she says. “It speaks from the heart.”

The longest war in American history is drawing to a close. Now, the men and women who served are coming home, and many hope to use higher education to build new, better lives. They have help from the Post-9/11 GI Bill, a piece of legislation that many advocates say offers more support to returning veterans than any policy since the original GI Bill of 1944. This documentary explores how the first GI Bill revolutionized the lives of millions of young veterans, America’s institutions of higher education, and American society at large. But America’s economic and academic systems have changed, and veterans today are returning to a very different reality than their predecessors.

SDPB is proud to announce we’ve received an award from the National Educational Telecommunications Association (NETA) for the SDPB television production Putting History to Work: The Economics of Historic Preservation.

Commissioned by the South Dakota Historical Society, the documentary examines the economic impact of rehabilitating buildings. A study of South Dakota projects on historic buildings has shown that renewing and reusing historic sites rather than demolishing them benefits the state.

We congratulate producer Chad Andersen, videographers Andrew Bork, Josh Kappler, and Paul Ebsen and voice talent Brian Gevik for receiving this national recognition.

business center in Sioux Falls.

The photo credit for the cover image of the Eagle Butte-Isabel wagon train on October’s Cowboy Up! issue of SDPB Magazine goes to Gordon Collins. We thank Gordon for the use of his photos.

Terri Lawrenz and Todd Magnuson continue their mission of introducing children of all ages to the outdoors in a fun, light-hearted format when they premiere the eighth season of Nature Adventures on Sunday, November 8.

Join Terri and Todd as they explore “America’s Amazon” – the Mobile-Tensaw River Delta in Alabama. Deemed “arguably the biologically richest place,” by scientist E. O. Wilson, the delta contains dozens of connected river channels and hundreds of islands within a jungle wilderness.

Next, the hosts go looking for playful sea otters and make many other amazing discoveries along the way.

They also venture to the Rio Grande Valley in Texas to explore its many diverse habitats. Watch as they happen upon an amazing array of wildlife, including the Crested Caracara – a carrion-eating relative of the falcon –and Chachalacas, birds that breed in mezquital thickets comprised of honey mesquite and curly mesquite grass.

Nature Adventures airs Sundays at 4:30 pm (3:30 MT) on SDPB 1.
