I met an exhibitor recently at the Association of American
Indian Physicians conference in Scottsdale, Arizona, and want to
mention some of the materials he has available for sale, as there
have been many requests for similar information.
The National Native American Co-op offers the following:
- NATIVE AMERICAN DIRECTORY (352 pp.), containing dates of
powwows and celebrations, list of national Indian
organizations, list of Indian schools, libraries, and
museums, list of Indian craft guilds, Native American media
(newspapers, magazines, etc.), Indian culture centers,
urban Indian centers, performing Indian artisans, dancers
and exhibitors, list of trading posts, major Indian
colleges, Indian-owned hotels and resorts, buyers list of
Indian stores and galleries, and more. Available in the
U.S. and Alaska for $44.95 plus $3.00 shipping, Canada for
$53.95 plus $3.00 shipping, overseas for $44.95 plus $9.00
airmail shipping. A library edition, with maps, is
available for $125.00.
- CASSETTE TAPES, powwows, dance songs, flag songs,
traditional and contemporary flute music (most by Tom
Ware and Fernando Cellicion), Navajo Peyote Songs, and
Legends, $15.00 for first tape, $12.00 for each additional.
- INDIAN FLAG, warrior emblazoned over either U.S. or
Canadian flags, $25.00.
- MAILINGS, the co-op receives newspapers, newsletters, and
other announcements and news of Native American activities
in bulk. It will send an assortment to those who send in
$6.00 and a large manila envelope.
I am posting this information, not as an endorsement, but to report
another source of information on Native American enterprises. To
order any of the above, or for more information, write to: Native
American Co-operative, P.O. Box 1000, San Carlos, AZ 85550-1000.
Please say you heard about the Co-op on the Internet, and let me
(or the net) know if the products are helpful. -- Steve
