Native America Calling

Show: Fighting the Stigma of HIV and AIDS
Date: December 1, 2008
Link: http://nac.unm.edu/archives/2008/dec/120108.mp3
Summary (from NAC website): When a survivor of cancer or diabetes declares their status, the tendency is to applaud their recovery. But often, when an HIV survivor makes the same declaration, the reaction is much different. Often their condition is met with negativity, not only in how they are received as tribal people but, also in terms of funding and public awareness. As World AIDS 2008 is observed, how are HIV and AIDS survivors fighting the stigma? Guests are Isadore Boni (San Carlos Apache), HIV/AIDS survivor and awareness advocate, and Kory Montoya (Jicarilla Apache), HIV/AIDS survivor and awareness educator.

Show: Same-Sex Marriage on Reservations
Date: September 10, 2008
Link: http://nac.unm.edu/archives/2008/sep/091008.mp3
Summary (from NAC website): The Coquille Tribe of Oregon recently passed a law recognizing same-sex marriage, believed to be the first such tribe to do so. This action is raising questions concerning who has control over domestic relations on tribal lands. The Coquille Tribe says their federal recognition gives them authority over this issue, even though the State of Oregon amended the state constitution in 2004 prohibiting gay marriage. The Navajo and Cherokee tribes have also passed laws prohibiting gay marriage. Where do you stand on the issue of same-sex marriage? Our guests are Kitzen Branting (Coquille) and Navajo Nation council representative Larry Anderson.

Show:

Summary (from NAC website): It’s Pride Week and communities across the country will be holding parades and marches celebrating their two-spirit members this weekend. But what about in Native villages and on reservations, will there be any special festivities? When we talk about the LGBT community, we sometimes overlook lesbians and their unique issues and challenges. Do Native lesbians have a tougher time than Native gay men? Guests include Sharon Day (Ojibwe), Executive Director of the Indigenous Peoples Task Force and Beverly Little Thunder (Lakota), a Native lesbian activist and founder of a women-only Sundance.
