| On Wednesday, Nov. 4th, there is a program, "Conquest of My Brother."
| "Told through the stories of presidents, chiefs, kings, and citizens,
| the relationship between European settlers and Native American tribes
| from 1775 to 1890 is documented in this special narrated by Brian
| Brightcloud."
However, while looking through the 'GBH listings, I found that during
the last week of November, the "American Experience" series will have a
program entitled "Last Stand at Little Big Horn." It is described as
follows in _'GBH Magazine_:
...few military events can rival Custer's Last Stand for epic
elements; it is one of the most depicted moments in American
history, inspiring countless works, from paintings and feature
films to comic books and cereal boxes. Yet the infamous Battle
at Little Big Horn left differing accounts. Using journals,
Native-American ledger drawings and archival films, "Last Stand
at Little Big Horn" (11/25) examines this watershed moment in
history from the view of the West's white pioneers and the per-
spective of the Sioux, Cheyenne and Crow people who inhabited
the Great Plains for generations. Pulitzer Prizewinning Native-
American writer Scott Momaday narrates.
Perhaps we can discuss the latter of the two programs, which should be on
throughout the U.S. and Canada, after it airs, by means of the NATCHAT list.
