Description: As changing technologies open up additional channels of communication around the world, alternative voices are demanding to be heard. Electronic Media and Indigenous Peoples provides the first guide to the efforts of indigenous peoples to present themselves on radio, television, and audio- and videocassettes.

Based largely on field research, the book documents the program-making of the Welsh in Wales, Irish-speakers in Ireland, Native Americans in the United States and Canada, Sami in Scandinavia, Aboriginals in Australia, Maori in New Zealand, Basque in France, and many others.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 253-284) and index.
