Native America Calling: Leave Twitter? Or stay and fight?

Leave Twitter? Or stay and fight?
For all its faults, Twitter is an effective means for sharing and discussing Native issues, culture, language, and business.

Is that a good reason to leave? Today on Native America Calling, Shawn Spruce reveals the results of our Twitter poll and takes your calls about the platform-in-transition.
