If passed, the legislation would prohibit businesses from exploiting Tribal designs and motifs and could also help artists protect their intellectual property. Can this legislation adequately protect Native American intellectual property from free market forces? Guests include US Senator Bingaman of New Mexico who introduced the legislation. TUE - 6/29: What's In A Name?: There is a story and a history behind each of our family names. For Native people, many of our names are translations or mutations of our original tribal names. While some of our names were given to us in honor of our colonizers. What's the story behind your family name? Invited guests include Sabrina Little Axe of the Absentee Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma. WED - 6/30: Book of the Month: "The Scalpel and the Silver Bear": Dr. Lori Arviso Alvord is the first Navajo woman surgeon, and she bringing the holistic healing knowledge of her people to western medicine.

Dr. Lori Alvord joins us on this special Book of the Month edition. THU - 7/1:Golf: A Native American Sport?: If you look closely, you'll see that more and more quality championship golf courses are dotting the Native American landscape.

Cherokee elder and dream speaker Pah'rish'ha, will again join host Sharon McConnell and offer interpretations based on Native traditions. So if you couldn't get an open phone line during the first dream show, here's your second chance to talk to Pah'rish'ha! FRI - 7/9: Natives in Residency: Doctors in Training For the first time in its three-year history, the "Wellness Edition" leaves its Anchorage, Alaska studios and travels to Seattle, Washington for a first hand look at a unique program designed to train American Indians and Alaska Natives to become Family Practice Physicians. The five-year old project of the Seattle Indian Health Board is a cooperative effort with Providence Seattle Medical Center and the University of Washington. Join host, Sharon McConnell, and her guests from the program, as they discuss "Doctors in Training" on the next "Wellness Edition" of Native America Calling. FRI - 7/16: Drugging our Children Unfortunately, some of our children have behavioral problems that often times need to be controlled with drugs. Some children have a hard time paying attention in school and others are too hyper and impulsive. But, are we too quick to diagnose drugs, such as Ritalin, Dexedrine, and Cylert, in order to control their behavior? Are there other more traditional methods? Join host, Sharon McConnell, and her guests, on the next "Wellness Edition" of Native American Calling as they discuss whether or not these drugs are always necessary and if perhaps they are over prescribed. FRI - 7/23: A Star to Follow: An important part of growing up was having someone you looked to, a role model whom you admired and wanted to be like. Where do our children find their heroes and role models today? Are they sports, movie or music stars or more "down to earth" heroes? On the next "Wellness Edition" of Native America Calling, host Sharon McConnell and her guests examine today's Native youth and their role models. FRI - 7/30: Surviving Breast Cancer: Breast Cancer is one of the leading causes of death among women in America.
