Cudos to President Obama for putting a stop on all oil well drilling -on the land, in shallow waters and in the deep seas.! That means Alaska, who were getting equipment in place for more drilling. We must demand the stop be in place until the day comes if or when the companies have the technology to NOT have any leaks at all, and in case something happens, they must have the technolgy to fix it NOW!
But more realistically we need to go to other types of fuel. Electric, solar, wind and horse power, and leave the oil in the ground.
We Natives have always lived in balance with our Mother. And it is up to us to stop the insanity, and disrespect of our Earth.

We hope you like the show this week. Let us know by posting your "comments" on our "Indian Country" page. Your calls into the studio are great and we love to hear from you!. The station prefers that our listeners post comments on the "comments" tab at our "Indian Country" page. That way they know you are listening. And it will show the need to have an American Indian show, like ours, on the KBOO radio station.
We will be back on in 2 weeks 6/11/10. Another show will demo their shows like we are demoing ours , So we will allternate with us every other week. This next Friday 6/4/10 is a folk music show with Flower Elliott. It should be good also.
We hope you will join us again on 6/11/10 Fri from 1:30-3:00pm
Thank you / Wado , Samantha
