About Prairie Rose

Prairie Rose is an independent Indigenous media platform rooted in the Northern Plains, storytelling, truth-telling, and community.

Grounded in Oglala Lakota Territory, Prairie Rose Media brings together media, writing, and consulting to create space for reflection, dialogue, and Indigenous-centered perspectives on education, leadership, and the world around us.

This work moves across multiple spaces.
Toksa Hour offers public conversation and analysis.
Prairie Rose Writing holds long-form reflection and scholarship. Stories preserves stories of history, people, and place through writing and digital storytelling.
Maggie’s Garden is a personal space for processing, grounding, and lived experience.
Prairie Rose Consulting supports institutions and communities through culturally grounded, relational approaches.

Each space serves a different purpose, but all are guided by a shared commitment to honesty, responsibility, and community.

Prairie Rose Media exists to speak clearly, build connection, and carry forward stories that matter.

About Maggie Ross

Maggie Ross is an Oglala Lakota educator, writer, storyteller, and host of Toksa Hour. Her work explores Indigenous education, sovereignty, history, politics, community, and the connections between past and present.

An educator by profession and a storyteller by nature, Maggie has spent years working in education and Indigenous communities while creating spaces for conversation, critical thinking, and storytelling. She launched Toksa Hour in 2020 and created Prairie Rose as a home for the conversations, writing, and stories that continued to grow around that work.

She has a habit of following questions wherever they lead, which explains the rabbit holes.
