PROGRAM SCHEDULE for 11/18 - 11/22:
Mon - 11/18: internet misinformation and disinformation: in
this day and age of obtaining instant news straight off the
information superhighway, are we sacrificing convenience for
accuracy? although this is a powerful form of communication for
today's society, it can be detrimental when irresponsible
individuals venture into cyberspace. join us as we discuss
internet misinformation and disinformation with our guest Gary
Trujillo, listowner of NativeNet.
tue - 11/19: culture and development: using our culture to
control state and federal programs is one way we can boost our
tribal economies. the first nations development institute
awards grants to Alaskan communities who manage natural
resources based on their traditions. how can other native
societies use this plan to enhance their communities? join us
as we look at how these tribes are managing. guests include
program officer for the eagle staff fund, Anna Kriska.
wed - 11/20: invasion of native-owned airspace: once again our
space is being sacrificed for the sake of tourism. each day,
swarms of helicopters and scenic flights soar over the grand
canyon, violating airspace which belongs to four tribes;
Havasupai, Hualapai, Navajo and Kaibab-Paiute. to date, the
federal aviation administration has not negotiated with any of
the tribes on this issue. how much of a fight will these tribes
have to put up before discussions are underway? guests include
Cisney Havatone, director of the Hualapai department of natural
resources.
thu - 11/21: tba.
fri - 11/22: wellness edition/dial-a-doc: do you ever wonder
what doctors encounter on a daily basis? whether that little
"problem" that's been plaguing you is really that common? now's
your chance to find out first-hand just what our doctors really
are dealing with each day. it's also your chance to get free
medical advice over the phone or share your own remedy! join
Sharon McConnell as she hosts the next wellness edition of
