Join your host J. Kehaulani Kauanui for an interview with Philip J. Deloria (Dakota Heritage) - a professor in the Department of History and the Program in American Culture at the University of Michigan, where he has been instrumental in building a Native American Studies program. Deloria discusses his current book-length project, "Crossing the (Indian) Color Line: A Family Memoir," which documents tensions surrounding a triangle of figures-his grandparents and great-aunt Ella Deloria, a pioneering Indian ethnographer-relating to "racial crossing, the authority of men and women, the preservation and recording of Native cultures, and the possibilities for reconciliation among histories and memories defined by the dispossession of Native North America." Other topics for the interview include: his own personal and professional trajectory as a scholar; the political and intellectual legacy of his late father, Vine Deloria Jr.; the relationship between activism & politics and scholarship & Native American Studies; cultural politics and decolonization; and his utopian political dreams. Philip Deloria is the author of Playing Indian, which was the winner of a Gustavus Myers outstanding book award for the study of Bigotry and Human Rights in North America, and, Indians in Unexpected Places, the 2006 winner of the John C. Ewers prize of the Western History Association. Among other honors, he was awarded a National Endowment for the Humanities Fellowship in 1999. Original air-date: 3-24-09
