This radio station is bilingual and so fantastic. They produced amazing films and reports that are paramount in keeping Yupik language alive
KYUK is a scrappy public radio station in Alaska. When Congress went after NPR, public radio stations like this one took the hit.
It broadcasts to indigenous people living in the tundra, and without public funding, it's facing massive layoffs.
