Material Detail

Native Voices:  Native Peoples' Concept of Health and Wellness Exhibition, sponsored by the National Library of Medicine, explores the interconnectiveness of wellness, illness, and cultural life of Native Americans, Alaska Natives, and Native Hawaiians. Go to "Interviews" and you find five themes: "Individual, Community, Nature, Tradition, and Healing" being discussed by Native Americans. While most of these interviews conducted are a few minutes in duration, each theme gives the viewer the essence of their perspective about a topic(s) in question. To learn more about Native American Authors you can go to the Internet Public Library www.ipl.org, Special Collections, Native American Authors. This site also lists several excellent programs/internships available to Native Americans interested in pursuing a career in Medicine. For additional educational programs go to "The Tribal College Journal of American Indian Higher Education" at www.tribalcollegejournal.org.
