-- Topica Digest -- We Have Many Voices - Native American Ezine - Volume 2 Issue 11 - June 22, 2002 By [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------ Date: Fri, 21 Jun 2002 01:03:37 -0400 From: "Raven Wolf" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: We Have Many Voices - Native American Ezine - Volume 2 Issue 11 - June 22, 2002 This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0560_01C218BF.7986E920 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit We Have Many Voices - Native American Ezine Announcment From The bi-monthly ezine "We Have Many Voices" We have updated our website where we bring you the news behind the news. A brief description of each article is listed below, and you may read them in their entirety at our web page: We Have Many Voices Ezine http://www.turtletrack.org/ManyVoices/ ---------------------------------------------------- Lets Talk About ... ... by Donna Ennis It's been some time since I wanted to really talk about something, now I have found something that has consumed me. Actually, there are a few issues involved in this one topic so we might be talking for quite some time about this. ---------------------------------------------------- There's Still Time To Catch Jump Kiss: An Indian Legend by Suzanne Westerly, Photojournalist Bringing us back in time, a Native American woman of mixed-blood tells her thought-provoking story of growing up in mid-century Kansas City in the new play, Jump Kiss: An Indian Legend, now playing at the Autry Museum of Western Heritage in Griffith Park. ---------------------------------------------------- Theater Review - Jump Kiss: An Indian Legend A play by Diane Glancy by Deanna Brady Celebrated Cherokee author and poet Diane Glancy's "Jump Kiss: An Indian Legend" is not a typical stage-play with a standard dramatic structure, which may be challenging for some theatergoers but will offer an adventure for others. Glancy's original text has evolved through readings and workshop efforts into a multimedia performance piece that takes form outside the bounds of conventional drama but nonetheless conveys emotional impact in an entertaining and thought-provoking theatrical presentation. ---------------------------------------------------- WHITE GUY SAVES INDIAN BACON YET AGAIN...? by Deanna Brady Seems like old times. From the ubiquitous TV trailers for "Windtalkers" (which identify only Nicolas Cage and never Adam Beach, although he actually has more to say in the ads than Cage), it certainly appears to be a rerun of the same antique and seriously antiquated theme. When the film was being cast a couple of years ago, Indian Country hoped against hope to see an informative and entertaining film about the amazing, courageous, and invaluable Navajo fighting men of WWII, but as more was revealed about the project, it looked like what we would actually get would be just the white guy rescuing the poor, helpless Indian yet again. Not precisely... . ---------------------------------------------------- Subsistence by Vicki Lockard from information provided by Dr. Wayne Allen, PhD What is "subsistence"? State and federal law defines subsistence as the customary and traditional uses of wild resources for food, clothing, fuel, transportation, construction, art, crafts, sharing and customary trade. Subsistence uses are central to the customs and traditions of many cultural groups in the North. Subsistence fishing and hunting are important sources of employment and nutrition in almost all rural communities. Most of the wild food harvested by rural families is composed of fish (about 60% by weight), along with land mammals (20%), marine mammals (14%), birds (2%), shellfish (2%) and plants (2%). ---------------------------------------------------- The Department of the Interior by Kasey WolfWeaver Early in the history of the United States, congress created three departments within the Executive branch of the government. They encompassed areas affecting matters of State or Foreign Affairs, matters of money (Treasury) and matters of war. The Postmaster General and United States Attorney General were also included within the Executive Branch. Issues affecting domestic matters were doled out amongst these departments. ---------------------------------------------------- Enviro-Rants From an All Natural Soapbox by Jamie Lockard I've done some pretty stupid things in my lifetime. I've done some immensely stupid things, in the name of love, in my lifetime. My Mother (you know who you are) could probably tell you some stories that would curl the hair on your toes, but she won't, because she knows she won't get any more articles from me if she did. And what a sad, sad place the world would be then. And then I woke up ... . ---------------------------------------------------- And the Nominees are ... 5th Annual Native American Music Awards Official List of Nominees by Native American Music Awards Nominees for the Fifth Annual Native American Music Awards were announced in a national press conference in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on Tuesday, June 18th at 1:00PM C.T. At the press conference, Indian Summer Festivals Inc.'s President, Jim Warren, Mary Denis of the Greater Milwaukee Visitors And Convention Bureau, and NAMA's President/CEO, Ellen Bello, made statements. Special performances were also held by some of this year's new nominees; Jana (Single of the Year), Robert Tree Cody (Best World Music Recording) and Micki Free (Debut Artist/Male Artist/Best Rock-Pop Recording). ---------------------------------------------------- Action Alerts collected from various sources ---------------------------------------------------- Craft Series by Lynne Sageflower Pennington Lynne has decided to take a break for a while. We look forward to her return, when she is ready. ---------------------------------------------------- The "Stoic" Indian by Paul Barry In each issue, you will find a funny story here. Perhaps, even a true story or one with a moral. ---------------------------------------------------- Moccasin Telegraph - News of Interest from Indian Country Gathered by Raven Weaver ---------------------------------------------------- To Subscribe, or Unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and place either "Subscribe" or "Unsubscribe" in the subject line and "Many Voices" in the body of the email.
