BooksA work in progress, the books is comprised of interviews with a wide variety of Native people throughout the United States -- whether on or off reservations. Interviewees speak not only about their own lives, but about issues that affect "Indian Country" today. Interviews thus far include a Kiowa powwow mc and drug counselor, a Yupik school secretary, a Lakota director of women's shelters, an Ojibwe elder, an Osage lawyer, a Chicago Navajo-Lakota cultural interpreter, a Yurok prison inmate (and artist), a Hopi journalist, the chief of the Penobscots, the leader of the Passamaquoddy blueberry harvest, a Navajo (Dineh) medicine man, and a Yakama fisheries spokeswoman who could double as a comedian. If you have any suggestions regarding interviewees or funding (donations may be made via a non-profit fiscal sponsor, a 501 (c) 3 that benefits the Native organization Cangleska), please contact the author.
