Can an Official Apology Right an Historic Wrong?

On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation about what Native Americans say about the Senate's passage of a resolution apologizing to Native Americans for the federal government's record of "violence, mistreatment, and neglect." Is it a meaningful step for Native Americans?

Join us live at 11 or drop us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. If President Obama followed the Senate's lead, could it help this country confront its past -- and appreciate the continuing importance of Native Americans? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Michael Smith, founder and director of the American Indian Film Festival

Nataani Graycloud Guthrie, student and healthcare volunteer at the Native American Health Center

Kateri Walker, actress in Kissed By Lightning and panelist for "Native Women vs. Hollywood Stereotypes" at the American Indian Film Festival
