I'm not talking about soda pops or your dad or a wack upside the head. I'm talking about persistent organic pollutants. They are the products and bi-products of recent human industry. They are pesticides and dioxins that float through the air, travel in our water and concentrate themselves in living organisms, including humans. TUE - 6/15: International Indian Treaty Council (IITC): The Hunkpapa Lakota Nation invites you to their 25th Anniversary Treaty conference at Mato Paha (Bear Butte), a sacred traditional area in the Paha Sapa (Black Hills). Indigenous people from around the world will gather to discuss international developments that affect local communities, and to build joint strategies. Is Native America making progress at the international level? Guests include Andrea Carmen of IITC. WED - 6/16: The Tobacco Wars: Last fall, when a settlement was reached between states and the tobacco industry it was acknowledged that Native people have suffered greatly from the effects of smoking. Yet, tribes were not allotted any compensation. Now, tribes throughout Indian Country are planning to get their fair share. Did the tobacco settlement benefit anyone in Indian Country? Guests include Harold Salway, President of the Oglala Sioux Nation. THU - 6/17: Aboriginal Voices Festival: A herd of 2,000 buffalo will thunder through the streets of Toronto next week as part of the opening ceremonies for the Aboriginal Voices Festival. The festival will encompass a media conference for television and radio broadcasters, journalists, filmmakers and other new media artists. Will U.S. Indian journalists ever catch up with the Canadians? Invited guests include festival coordinator Alanis King. Attention: Program change for June 18, 1999 FRI - 6/18: Keeping Children Busy: When summer arrives, school activities vanish. In rural villages and on reservations it can be even more of a challenge to keep children mentally and physically active. What can parents and communities do to provide our children safe learning and recreational activities? Join host Sharon McConnell and her guests, on the next "Wellness Edition" of Native America Calling, as they discuss keeping our children busy during the summer months.
