Broadcast on 90.3 FM, KNBA broadcasts popular programs like Native America Calling, which recently garnered a National Humanities Medal from The National Endowment for the Humanities.

. It’s a nonprofit, Alaska Native-ran media center dedicated to bringing Native voices to Alaska and the nation.

“KNBA was thought of to be the voice for Alaskans with an interest in Alaska Native issues,” Sallee said. “I think it’s really important that the young people hear the stories of their, their history, the songs, the native languages,” Sallee said.. It’s broadcast out of Albuquerque, N.M. and is the nation’s only daily call-in radio program on public broadcasting stations. The hour-long program hosted by Shawn Spruce features experts and gives callers a chance to ask questions on important topics.

In March of 2023, Sallee and others involved with the show traveled to Washington D.C. as recipients of the 2021 National Humanities Medal from The National Endowment for the Humanities. Sallee received the medal from President Biden on behalf of the show.
