Native American Cultural Resource Links

Hello Everyone,

 Over a long period of time, I’ve accumulated numerous resources for the research and writing that I do. I hope that I’ve encouraged many of you to seek out more information on the topics that I’ve been writing about. There’s a lot of information readily available on the internet but not all of it is what I refer to as Native-friendly. Many websites also slant to present information for a certain cause or interpret American Indian culture to their benefit.

 I can only hope then, that if you’re interested in this culture that you seek out websites that are produced and supported by Native Americans. Below are a list of web links that are near and dear to me for various reasons. This is not the complete list of Native links that I have on my computer, some of the links are very specific to my various interests. The list below is a general overview of the following topics: History, Culture and Resource Links; Organizations; News & Media Outlets; Government Links; and a couple of general links to Native websites in Canada.
