Lecture with Q&A on the first Native American Studies program in the US

About This Item

A lecture/ discussion on the trials and tribulations we, as First Nations people, endured to implement Native American/Indigenous studies on the UC and CSU level. In 1968 when there were only 10 Native American Indians that held Ph.Ds. It was, to say the least, somewhat difficult to persuade a university into establishing a Native American Studies program. When they finally agreed to it, it was up to me to recruit faculty and students to make this program a success. http://www.sfsu.edu/~ethnicst/
