Native Bidaské with Oliver (OJ) Semans
Join Native News Online Editor Levi Rickert as he interviews Oliver (OJ) Semans (Sicangu Oyate) to discuss the upcoming Midterm Election, important candidates that you should pay attention to, and why the Native Vote is important.
Oliver (OJ) Semans, an enrolled member of the Rosebud Sioux Tribe, or Sicangu Oyate, helped form Four Directions, Inc., after leading the historic Native vote project in South Dakota’s 2002 U.S. Senate race. Since then, OJ has continued to lead nonpartisan Native voter engagement, empowerment, protection, and voting rights work across the country. In 2005, OJ Semans testified before the National Commission on the Voting Rights Act before the reauthorization of the Voting Rights Act in 2006, and in 2014 he testified again before the National Commission on the Voting Rights Act.
