<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Today's NYT has a good article in the Arts section
titled"Indian Country Radio Sends a Strong Signal". The following URL is
what I picked up from the site -- I hope it works:</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The article is very informative on a topic I was
unaware of -- radio stations run and programmed by Indians, such as the Hopi and
Navajo.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It also uses "Indian" consistently and without
apology, and quotes Indians who say "Indian".</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#000080 size=2>This is a topic I know little about,
but it's my impression, FWIW, that very often the group of people we call
"Native Americans" out of respect or political correctness, or whatever, refer
to themselves as "Indians of the _______ tribe" as a way of identifying
themselves. "Indian", and "Indian Country" used in this way seem to be of
"Native American" origin. But I could be mistaken.</FONT></DIV>
