Why cases of missing and murdered Indigenous women don’t receive national attention

CBS, 26 Sep 2021

Still, the cases of missing and murdered Indigenous women rarely garner attention across the U.S. Connie Walker, investigative journalist and host of the podcast “Stolen: The Search for Jermain,” joined CBSN to discuss the ongoing crisis.
