About this listen

 A sweeping view of the Osage Hills, the vibrant pulse of community, and a legal battle that could redefine tribal sovereignty—this episode of the Osage Nation Podcast brings you inside the fight over the controversial wind farm on Osage land. Join host Russ Tallchief, Chief Justice Meredith Drent, and Dr. Jean Dennison as they unravel the story behind the lawsuit challenging the construction of wind turbines by an international energy company—built without Osage consent and in defiance of tribal and federal law. Discover how this case is about more than just windmills: it’s a powerful stand for Osage rights, environmental identity, and the future of tribal self-determination. Hear firsthand why the Osage Nation’s mineral rights matter, how the courts have recognized tribal sovereignty as a public interest, and what’s at stake for Native nations across the United States. The conversation dives into the complexities of land ownership, the ongoing struggle with state and federal governments, and the resilience of a community determined to protect its heritage and resources. Whether you’re passionate about Indigenous rights, environmental justice, or landmark legal battles, this episode will challenge your assumptions and inspire you to stand with the Osage Nation. Hit play to join the fight and learn how you can stay informed and support the cause.
