Each Sunday we bring you a selection of stories from the MPR News North Star Journey series about the history and culture of Minnesota communities.

This week, journalist Lee Hawkins talks to the substitute teacher that was so influential in his life, MPR News reporter Hannah Yang shares memories of a special dish Korean mothers make for their daughters, and MPR News contributor Melissa Olson explores a planned land transfer from the federal government back to the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe.

North Star Journey is made possible in part by the Minnesota Legacy Amendment's Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
