Native America Calling had a recent interview with attorney Scott Crowell and Shoshone Bannock Tribal Chairman Alonzo Colby on Monday February 16, 2009 regarding Larry Echohawk's possible appointment to Assistant Secretary for Indian Affairs.

An informative, depending on who you are and what you're willing to accept, pod cast can be found at http://nac.unm.edu/archives/2009/feb/021609.mp3.


excerpts:

"Larry was clearly doing his job"

"I would opt for his brother Walter"

"not simply advising the governor...traveled the state advocating for the change in the constitution"

"You negotiate with Indian tribes in good faith based upon the laws of the book of the time"
