In Episode 5 we were so lucky to have Senator Lisa Murkowski with us for an engaging conversation!

Born in Ketchikan, Alaska, Senator Murkowski is a lifelong Alaskan whose family heritage goes back three generations. Senator Murkowski was adopted into the Deisheetaan (Beaver) clan and given the Tlingit name Aan shaawátk’I, which means ‘Lady of the Land’. She is the first member of the Alaska congressional delegation to earn the National Indian Health Board’s Jake White Crow Award for Lifetime Achievement and the National Congress of American Indians’ Congressional Leadership Award. We hope you enjoy the conversation and we can’t wait continue this journey of Opening the Box of Knowledge!
