Monday, June 2, 2008 - The Challenges of Basketweavers:
Sometimes to keep a tradition alive you have to overcome obstacles that a changing world brings. For many basketweavers who continue the traditions their ancestors passed down to them - such as gathering materials from the wild - it is especially challenging. Mining, pesticides, and land development affect all Native basketweavers. What are the answers to keeping a tradition alive when modernization threatens it? Guests include Lucy Parker (Yosemite Miwok/Mono Lake and Paiute/Kashaya Pomo) Chairwoman/California Indian Basketweavers Association.

Leaping out of the realm of being made fun of, Natives have taken hold of this platform and drawn their way in. How do tribal and national politics play out at the drafting table today? How does this form of storytelling relate to Native identity and culture? Guests TBA.
