Madeline Matson and Taneum Fotheringill traveled to Granite Falls, Minn., to host Rural Assembly Everywhere live from The YES! House, in partnership with the Department of Public Transformation (DoPT). The conversation below is a reflection on their experience hosting live, participating in an open mic night, and celebrating the hundreds of people who joined together to uplift our rural communities across the country during Rural Assembly Everywhere 2026.
