On Tuesday 15 February 2011 Native America Calling will broadcast a radio talk show regarding Missing and Murdered Women in Vancouver. The third annual Stolen Sisters Memorial March was held on February 13. Heads up, we’re not talking about 5 or 6 women who have gone MIA. There are nearly 600 Indigenous women on the list compiled by the Native Women’s Association. Vancouver and the Pacific Northwest is just one of several high kill zones for Indigenous women along the Canada/United States border and the Mexico/United States border. Hundreds of unsolved murders and disappearances of Indigenous women go unsolved, seldom reported in the mainstream media, and ignored by the general population. Amnesty International has investigated this continuing violence against Indigenous women. The question arises of what if these women were white and middle class? Would there then be widespread awareness and public outcry for all the crime prevention units to produce some serious results for ending this murder industry? I don’t know.
At any rate, Native America Calling’s show will include Angela MacDougall (director of Battered Women Support Services) and Marlene George who organized the annual march. The show is broadcast live 1-2 pm Eastern Time–and will be available online afterwards. The show streams live online.

Wondering what Native Americans think of Johnny Depp playing Tonto in a new film? Well, surf to Native America Calling’s online former broadcasts and find out. Heads up, make sure you’re wearing your satire hat for the “win Depp” show. There’s an online archive list and summary of several years of broadcasts covering everything from healthcare to water rights to “matchmaking.” Oh yes, there is more talk radio in America than the usual media attention beasts bellowing on the sound waves. The discussions on Native America Calling are lively, smart, informative and enjoyable. Harlan McKosato is the show’s host and producer. Listeners are invited to call in and participate in the conversations.
Native America Calling broadcasts live Monday through Friday, 1-2pm Eastern time. 10 am PST. You can listen online too.
On Monday, February 7, 2011 the topic will be the “State of Indian Education.” Having blogged my thoughts about the general state of education in America, I’m very interested in hearing this particular broadcast.
You can view the subjects of this upcoming week’s shows here– http://www.nativeamericacalling.com/
They’re serving everything from Casino Jack to Adapting to Climate Change. And it all gets archived for listening at later dates.
In the Kansas City Metro area there’s only ONE hour a week of radio programming featuring Native American music, news, issues, and people. Native Spirit Radio airs on www.kkfi.org hosted by Rhonda LeValdo (Acoma Pueblo), on Sundays, 5-6pm CST. NSR streams online.

I recently was informed about a remarkable Dakota woman writer, teacher and activist named Waziyatawin (aka Dr. Angela Wilson). She is an outspoken advocate for the rights of Indigenous people–including their right to restoration of the land stolen from them. Land is needed for survival if you’re going to create a sustainable life based on traditional concepts. Makes sense to me. Whenever something is stolen it can be found and returned to its rightful owner. Why should land be any different from a stolen purse, car or money? If you click on the image below you can read Waziyatawin’s thoughts and find her books yourself. I’ve only read what’s on her website so I’m unable to comment on her books. But I did hear her speak her mind on Native America Calling. She’s an impressive woman fully aware of her intellectual and creative power and using it to make a difference.

Thursday, January 20, 2011–Free Speech and Censorship.
Much thanks to Monika for providing links to Native America Calling and Waziyatawin’s recent go round with racism, and the FBI. Since when does advocating for Indigenous land rights and relating historical truths, however uncomfortable they might be, qualify as “terrorism”? Dr. Wilson’s experience reveals some negative characteristics about the critical thinking skills of some young people in America–and their ethics.

I’ve been saving this musical gift for a gloomy winter day and this is it–buckets of gloom looming. Ahhhh. Okay, many of you are probably tired of my beating the drum for KKFI 90.1 fm Community Radio’s “Liberated Airwaves” as one volunteer DJ says. But I’m going to beat the drum again for the all the great jazz it offers. Hear! Hear! One very cool thing about KKFI is that you can “win” free music. Yes, even I who has dark star bad luck with all games of chance—can win a cd by being the 4th caller into Jazz in the Afternoon featuring a live in studio interview with jazz violinist Christian Howes. Yes, you read that right–Jazz Violinist. I have no idea why I even decided to dial spin the opportunity. I suspect Howes’ tunes worked some sort of magic on my mind. But I did–and to my surprise I landed in the right phone spot. Out of the Blue arrived in my mailbox a few days later. Thank you! I’ve been enjoying its clear rich soundwave energy ever since. If you’re a jazz/blues fan you can too. This cd also offers guitarist Robben Ford’s magic fingers & Sharon Hendrix’s pipes on “Seek and Ye Shall Find.”
