First Voices Indigenous Radio

First Voices brings to the airwaves the experiences, perspectives and struggles of Indigenous people who have been almost totally excluded from both mainstream and progressive, alternative media. Our purpose is to help ensure the continuance and survival of Indigenous cultures and Nations by letting the People tell their own story, in their own words, and often in their own languages and ways of speaking. This one hour is devoted to bringing the voices of the Indigenous Peoples of Turtle Island (i.e., North America) and connecting their struggles with those of other Indigenous Peoples around the world.

Indigenous News Headlines from August 11, 2005 program. Tiokasin Ghosthorse and Mattie Harper also discuss the implications of the recently signed Energy bill for Indian lands.
