Communications and Contemporary Native Americans - A Media Symposium
March 2-3, 2006 in Washington, DC

DETAILS: http://www.fcnl.org/nativeam/media_symp.htm

=20

=20

We have criminally little to do with Indian Country... Our coverage is
wildly inadequate.
-- Steve Coll, WWashington Post

=20

The absence of U.S. media coverage about Native American communities
means that Indian Country today is a mystery to most people. While there
are rampant stereotypes, realities and cultural strengths remain hidden.


Come participate in a conversation about Indian Country with the goal of
engaging more people with issu! es affecting indigenous peoples in the
United States.=20

In the increasingly organized anti-Indian climate, a focus on media
attitudes and content is crucial. We are glad to join FCNL in seeking
both clear strategy and substantial engagement of media by Native
Nations and a better and deeper education for mainstream journalists on
the nature of tribal rights.

~Jose Barreiro, senior advisor, American Indian Policy and Media
Initiative!=20

=20

=20

"There is the strongest case to be made that a more empowered and more
concentrated effort is necessary by a circle of American Indian
opinion-makers, national organizations and tribal nations to organize
serious and far-reaching campaigns that generate in the American public
- and particularly for professionals in American media - a more
comprehensive understanding of how to report on Indian country."=20

This symposium will feature the lived experience of Native Americans
today. Because race has played a pivotal position in American history, I
am interested in how we cohere as a people. One way is by sharing our
individual and collective narratives and bringing them to public
attention through the media.
