112.3  ANOTHER VIEW OF THE "SQUAW" CONTROVERSY

>>From Margaret Anderson (anderson at unbc.ca) 9 Apr 2000:

I very much appreciated getting the link to Cecil Adams' "Straight Dope"
column on the controversy over place names with "squaw" (SSILA Bulletin
#110.3).  I think readers might also want to see the postings by Abenaki
historian Marge Bruchac on the H-Amindian list regarding the same issue.
They can be found in the H-Amindian archive for 1 Sept. and 28 Sept. 1999.
The address for the H-Amindian homepage is:

Chetco-Tututni discography
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
A short discography that lists and annotates all the known recordings in
the languages of the Southwest Oregon Athabaskans has been put on-line
by Don Macnaughtan of the Lane County Library in Eugene.  The ethnic
groups include the Tututni, Chetco, Chasta Costa, and Galice-Applegate.
Although most of the recordings are unique wax cylinders, acetate discs,
or aluminum discs held in archives in Washington DC and Seattle, in many
cases the Lane County Library has tape recordings available for tribal
members and researchers.  This is a special project of the Confederated
Tribes of the Lower Rogue as a resource for tribal ceremonies and rituals.
