Ep 28 - Jon Ruybalid

The liquor stores in Whiteclay, Nebraska made national news. For years, the four businesses in the tiny town gave residents of the alcohol-free Pine Ridge Indian Reservation easy access to liquor. Back in 2017, the stores shut down. Now, a non-profit is turning one of the empty buildings into a makerspace – a shared studio where artists can use tools and supplies. The force behind this project, Whiteclay Makerspace, is Jon Ruybalid, an attorney who practices law in Phoenix and in Henderson, Nebraska. You can purchase art by visiting https://whiteclayredo.com/
