In one of Russia's most expansive attacks since the beginning of the war, several Ukraine cities were hit by explosions. Ukraine bureau chief for the Washington Post Isabelle Khurshudyan joins us. Then, one Native American inventor has built robots designed to teach Indigenous languages and culture to children who may not be exposed to it any other way. Danielle Boyer, the founder of the nonprofit The STEAM Connection who is making these robots, joins us. And, we revisit a conversation with Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award-winning author Louise Erdrich about her novel "The Sentence" about a haunting at a Native American bookstore in Minneapolis in 2020.
