Celebrate Native American & Alaska Native Heritage Month with NV1.We are pleased to offer a variety of new programs specials, from documentaries, Native Radio Theater, Storytelling, and a Native Hip Hop hour starting this November. Stream Times: 7 am, 2 pm and 8 pm (All times EST) Native Radio Theater The Red Road Native Voices at the Autry and the Native Radio Theater present Arigon Starr's "The Red Road" - a one-hour romp filled with humor, music and a hilarious take on contemporary Native America.
"The Red Road" is set in 1977 at the All Nations Café along Route 66 in Sapulpa, Oklahoma. Café owner Verna Yahola is under siege by friends, family, and three unlikely suitors as country music superstar Patty Jones brings her television show to the Café for their tenth anniversary television special. The bright lights attract curious spectators, including local Creek DJ, Clyde Chupco; Verna's teenage sci-fi geek niece Loretta; Beatles expert, nine-year old Desmond Tsinajinnie and his father, the café's frycook Emmitt; Bingo-crazed elder Etta Walters; British punk rocker Danny Dacron; brother and sister American Indian activists Bonnie and Richard Doolittle; and Verna's wildly handsome and popular brother Merle, Jr. Raven's Radio Hour
Being Indian In AmericaA radio documentary in four parts that weaves interviews, readings and strands of music into a collective portrait of contemporary Native life. The first hour, Who We Are, explores memories, blood quantum and what being Native means on a personal level. The second hour, On and Off the Reservation, looks at the hardships of reservation confinement and urban displacement, the impact of racism and poverty on family life, the strengths that have endured. The third hour, The Sacred Trust, surveys the roots and the relevance of native spirituality -- the core beliefs, the meaning of ceremony, sacred animals and all our relations. The fourth hour, Gifting the Future, is a living portrait of the Native way, a sacred and practical philosophy that preserves the future by honoring the Creator, Mother Earth, the ancestors, coming generations, and the fundamental values of honesty, integrity and reciprocity. LEGENDS: Native American Storytelling from Different NationsLegends is a storytelling show. It features stories from various Native American Nations/Tribes, hosted by storyteller Elbert TwoPonies. The stories are entertaining and give explanations for how things came to be. Theses stories taught people how to live in their clans and tribes. Today, there is a need for stories that speak to us. It is hoped that the listener will hold one or more of these stories in his or her heart and mind and tell it to others. A meaningful story becomes a personal friend, something that speaks to one in times of trouble and helps you get through a difficult day. These stories entertain us and can help us in life, regardless of our heritage. Each story is there to help all of us that are willing to listen; tell the story and pass it on to someone else. Groove Central Groove Central radio show is hosted by We Shall RemainWe Shall Remain "The Radio Project" illustrates a bridge between historical events and the Native world as it is today from current perspectives, "We feel it is vitally important that Tribes and Native communities are not left in the past, but seen as the dynamic Sovereign Nations that they are today. We do not dwell on Indians as victims, but as proud strong nations participating in the American economy and contributing to local communities. At the same time, we revere our cultures and languages, honor our ancestors, live in the present and work toward a bright future."
