Last night was the last "Native Nations" television program I have participated in.
The show will continue via David Liberty and Adam White Stone.
Of course, which is not unusual for this program, our guests were unable to make it. "N8V" had two members with the flu, but they may come down for the May show.
Next month David is trying to get Chief Johnny Jackson, Chief Wilbur Slokish, and Carol Logan to talk about grave desecration at the hands of ODOT in the Welches area of Highway 26.
I don't feel all that sad, really. It has been a nice run. I asked again that agents of the U.S. government turn coat and become whistle blowers. I am going to miss folks and the audience, but you all will be in the good Hands of David and Adam.

On a sad note, I received an e-mail this morning stating that not only will next Thursday be the last "Mitakuye Oyasin" I participate in, it will be the last "Mitakuye Oyasin." Should the programming director choose to and the programming committee support him, he could eradicate this program and put in elevator music should he choose. That would mean another reduction in Indian programming on KBOO. With John Talley's health being an issue and should he no longer be able to make it down, ALL NATIVE PROGRAMMING COULD BE ERADICATED FROM KBOO! I had no idea until I got the e-mail this morning that such was the case. I didn't mean for that to happen. It breaks my heart. It was not my intention. I apologize.
