    University of Oklahoma Libraries Western History Collections Indians

    University of Oklahoma Libraries Western History Collections Indians for Indians Collection Indians for Indians was a radio program that aired on WNAD, the University of Oklahoma’s radio station. The program began in April 1941, and aired from 1:00pm to 1:30pm on Tuesdays. It was a 30-minute broadcast until 1951, when it expanded to a full hour. The program presented Oklahoma Indian music, the latest Indian news, and announcements about local events including powwows. Indians for Indians was created by Sac and Fox chief, Don Whistler, who served as emcee from 1941 to 1951. The Indians for Indians Collection contains 125 reel-to-reel tapes, all recorded from the 1940s through the 1970s. The collection records over 100 hours of original Indian music by individuals and groups from many different tribes. Whistler invited selected tribal members to Norman and recorded their live performances. These broadcasts contain ceremonial, social, and religious songs and music of Apache, Comanche, Cheyenne, Arapaho, Kiowa, Creek, Seminole, Sac and Fox, Shawnee, Caddo, Pawnee, Osage, Ponca, Otoe, Iowa, Wichita, Sioux, Hopi, Cherokee Indians and other tribes. The programs were originally recorded on discs with some later re- recorded on reel-to-reel tapes. Each tape contains recordings of several broadcasts and some may contain only the performance portions of a program. ****************************************************************************** The earliest Indians for Indians original discs (1943-1950) were given to the Library of Congress for permanent preservation in 1987. They are located at the American Folklife Center of the Library of Congress.
