Dawn of Nations Today appears online for the first time this year. Through a course in UNM’s Department of Native American Studies, students working on Dawn of Nations Today learn the business of news, from writing and editing to production and distribution.
In addition to working with experienced journalist and UNM Lecturer Mary Bowannie, students are mentored by alumni and professionals from the community.
Dawn of Nations Today covers Native American affairs from the campus to the national level. Current topics include the Native American Journalists Association’s 25th anniversary, Diné and Puerto Rican ballet dancer Jock Soto, and the effect of poverty on Native American teenagers.
