Thursday,
December 2 - Native Women & Career Concerns: (Listen
in RealAudio…)
Women
have a major influence in many Native cultures. Several tribes have a matriarchal
society with the women helping to govern the people. In today’s society,
Native women are also taking lead roles in a variety of careers outside
the home. But in this relatively new environment they may find themselves
facing obstacles like stress, balancing family and jobs, professional jealousy
and even sexual harassment. Where can they turn for help and what advice
is out there for them? Guests are Ronetta Keeter Briggs (Cherokee), CEO
and Co-Founder of Osiyo Communications,
and Joanna Stancil (Shawnee/ Cherokee) of the Native American Resources,
LLC., Professional Development Trainer.
