New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has proposed considerable state school aid for the third straight year for the Tuscarora School and two other Native American schools owned by the state.

NewsHour’s St Louis community reporter Gabrielle Hays, who has been reporting on one school in Missouri that fits into this painful history, joins Geoff Bennett to discuss what she uncovered.
