Indian Times: Feather Busts in Indian Country (Apr 27, 2009)
This week on Indian Times, we speak with Native American Times correspondent JoKay Dowell about the recent feather busts by federal fish and wildlife agents, and what it could mean for any Native American in possession of feathers. Dowell is a member of the Quapaw, Peoria and Cherokee Nations. She is a long-time community organizer and became concerned as news of the feather busts began to trickle in to Oklahoma via emails.
