How did your family end up in Minnesota? Do you know the story of your ancestors’ journey? In the 1800s, immigrants to our region primarily came from Scandinavia and Germany. More recently, major populations have come to Minnesota from Laos, Somalia, Mexico, Liberia, Ecuador, Afghanistan and India. In fact, almost 500,000 people who live in Minnesota today were born outside of the United States. But behind the where is also a why . And over time, those narratives can get lost if not recorded. North Star Journey Live: Immigrant Stories That’s why MPR News, together with Sahan Journal, presented a collaborative North Star Journey Live and Sahan Community Live conversation at St. Paul Neighborhood Network on Feb. 20. Hosted by immigration reporters Sarah Thamer and Katelyn Vue, this in-person event focused on how immigrant communities in Minnesota preserve their histories and pass them on to new generations.

High blood pressure is one of the most common health risks in the U.S. — and most people don’t even know that they have it. It’s called the “silent killer” because people with high blood pressure often have no symptoms. And yet, over time, it can lead to serious problems like heart disease, strokes and kidney failure. New data shows that high blood pressure also is becoming more common among young people. Fourteen percent of children and teens in the country either have high blood pressure or are heading toward it, according to a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study. MPR News host Angela Davis talks with two cardiologists about the latest research on the dangers of untreated high blood pressure and the treatments and lifestyle changes that can help protect your heart. Guests: Dr. Jamie Lohr is a pediatric cardiologist for M Health Fairview and an associate professor of pediatrics at the University of Minnesota Medical School.

It can reflect the pacing of a scene, emphasize a moment in the plot or build tension within the characters and their dialogue.

Talking about mental health can be difficult but it can help us understand some of the challenges and possible treatments. MPR News host Angela Davis shares some of her memorable conversations about mental health.
The podcast Sold a Story explores how a generation of children has been taught to read based on a flawed idea. The consequences can be seen in the lives of millions of struggling students across the country. Over a third of Minnesota fourth graders cannot read at a basic level, according to scores released last month by the National Assessment of Education Progress. The Sold a Story series was one of the most-shared shows on Apple Podcasts when it came out in 2023 and one of Time magazine’s top podcasts of the year. It spurred 25 states — including Minnesota — to pass new laws regarding reading instruction. The original 10 episodes explain the rise of this entrenched approach to reading instruction, who benefited from it and how it persisted despite cognitive science research that exposed its flaws. MPR News host Angela Davis talks with colleagues who worked on Sold a Story about its impact and new episodes coming out this month looking at solutions. Guests: Emily Hanford is a senior correspondent and producer at APM Reports and the host of Sold a Story . Her career in public radio began in college in Amherst, Massachusetts. She worked for Ira Glass when he was making the pilots for This American Life, was a reporter and host at WBEZ-Chicago and news director and senior editor at WUNC-Chapel Hill.

MPR News host Angela Davis and her guests continue the conversation about the Minneapolis Police Department and an ambitious effort led by the Police and Black Men Project.
The Minneapolis Police Department has spent a lot of time in the national spotlight for all the wrong reasons. It’s operating under a court-ordered agreement with the Minnesota Department of Human Rights after investigators in 2022 found a pattern of racism in Minneapolis policing that violated the Minnesota Human Rights Act. In late December, MPD and the U.S. Justice Department reached an agreement on a federal consent decree that would mandate additional changes. It still needs the approval of a federal judge, who has not set a timeline for considering it. Going forward, how can Minneapolis build trust between police and community members? MPR News host Angela Davis presents an audio documentary about her experiences traveling to Montgomery, Ala., with a group of Minneapolis police officers and Black community members working to bridge the divide. They’re part of an ambitious effort called the Police and Black Men Project . Eight years ago, following the police killing of Philando Castile in a Twin Cities suburb , the group started meeting regularly to talk about repairing and building relationships between police and the people they serve. On the Alabama trip, they toured museums and historical sites telling the story of slavery, racial segregation and mass incarceration in America. Then they sat down in small groups and talked about what they’d seen and heard. The goal was to connect the past to the present, create a better understanding of the distrust that exists today and learn how to talk about it. They invited Angela and producer Stephen Smith to tag along, observe and record their intimate discussions. Listen to Angela’s Alabama scrapbook and check out her reporter’s notebook story online that’s filled with insights and photos from the trip.
