It is well worth a listen and there are videos of him singing available on youtube, too. Here's the link: Click . |

"Native American" never caught on among them; it remains a construct of well-meaning European-descended Americans. On the other hand, one could spend a lot of time at various Indian Nation websites without finding much mention of the term "NDN". |
