Native America Calling
Super Indian. Tribal Force. Captain Paiute. If you don't know these names then you're not yet plugged into the growing world Indigenous comics. The first ever Indigenous Comic Con is descending on Albuquerque and we're broadcasting live. Comic conventions or 'cons' began as an opportunity for hard core comic book fans to connect and geek out. But it's grown to include a much broader audience. There are a handful of comics and video games written by and about Native Americans. We'll talk with some of the artists and authors about what inspires them.
Native America Calling is a national call-in program that invites guests and listeners to join a dialogue about current events, music, arts, entertainment and culture.
The program is hosted by Tara Gatewood (Isleta Pueblo) and airs live each weekday from 1-2 pm Eastern.
